Most importantly, on this Paddy's Day, and from this Irishman, it is to give much respect to the great Steve Thompson - a great of the game and a brave man highlighting a tremendously vital issue. Peace & love Steve ✊️

amazing how far Irish rugby has come in 17 years! we have gone from DREAMING of beating England at home or away for a Triple Crown to beating the All Blacks at home and away, Grand Slams and World Number 1?! as an irishman who grewup watching so many "close but no cigar" games......its never been a better time to be an irish rugby supporter :) Heres to the dream of a HOME GRAND SLAM tomorrow against England coming to fruition! Comon Ireland!

Will never forget this game. I had just returned from a 14 months around the world backpacking trip, was sitting in the Westin Hotel, just off Grafton Street with my backpack under the seat with a few buddies welcoming me back. It was a great homecoming event!

What a frantic end. You'd never kick it away twice in the last minute now a days!!

Knew the result and still me heart is running watching this 🤣🤣🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪

The Green Army celebrated the St Patrick's day, one day after, by winning their last match, in Twickenham, against England, fantastic souvenirs ! An Irish dream team (O'Driscoll, O'Gara, O'Connell, O'Gallaghan, Stringer, D'arcy, Flannery, Horan, Horgan...) !!! The beginning of the Irish rise, 1 year before the Irish blasting and bloody victory, in Croke Park, against England (once again and so symbolic) and 3 years before the second Grand Slam !!!

That conversion by Rog🤩

Crazy how far Ireland have come - respect to England 🇮🇪

Thumb nail should be Shane Horgan in the corner not tommy Bowe that picture is from the 2010 fixture.

The honesty of everyone in rugby is heart warming ❤

I still to this day cannot understand O Gara kicking twice to touch giving England both line outs.

gods the scrum used to be so much more violent

Did anyone else see the thumbnail with Tommy Bowe and say "10 minutes" in the way Squidge makes fun of him?

Great game, two great teams. This is why the 6 nations is the best rugby tournament on the planet, always was and always will be.

I got married this day - double perfection. Thanks Shane.

Jesus that was epic. Those permanent tsb baggy jerseys are fucking awesome I want 1

Wow we forgot this and how special it was

My first time ever watching and following Ireland was the wooden spoon season of 1992, the valiant defeat down in New Zealand that same year, and all the other heartbreaking seasons then on apart from some special one offs like the 17-3 defeat and 13-12 defeat of England in 1993 and 1994. Anyway, these are days not to be taken for granted, they are days we could only have dreamed of but never believed, and now they are here, so let's enjoy it and never lose focus of where we have come from and embrace what we now are, truly world beaters!

Its amazing how much the tactics have changed. Everytime Ireland had the ball against England in 2023 there were 3 dummy pass options. Here, Ireland looked like they only had one or sometimes two options. The phases are slower here and England has enough time to build up their defence after most phases. This rugby feels like it relies a lot more on the abilities of the players rather than the intelligence of a coach creating a truly cohesive team. I'm excited to see where Ireland goes from here. For the world cup, it sucks that the three toughest teams in my eyes (New Zealand, South Africa and France) will have to be beaten to make it to the semi-finals. And if we do beat them all, our team will surely be depleted with injuries. Also, a lot of our up and coming players are still learning how to cope with nerves. There's a chance we'll win it this year, but I think 2027 is more likely.

Sweet sweet the Memories they gave us👍😉

6:11 Brian o driscoll not Jerry flannery

Shaggy you legend!! :D

Wish Eddie Butler was calling the game tomorrow 😢

The scrums are insane compared to now

Shane Horgans finest moment!

Brilliant!

Law 22 (e) Tackled near the goal-line. If a player is tackled near to the opponents’ goal line so that this player may immediately reach out and ground the ball on or over the goal-line, a try is scored. (f) In this situation, defending players who are on their feet may legally prevent the try by pulling the ball from the tackled player’s hands or arms, but must not kick the ball.

I was in Rome that day watching Scotland's win there so this is the first bit of footage I've seen from this game. Can you put up highlights from the whole match itself?

Two big mistakes here in the final minutes of this game by England, against an Ireland side which was a man down due to a yellow card. First mistake, Andy Goode taking the penalty instead of kicking for the corner, where England surely would have won a line out and then maul over for the winning try. Second mistake a few minutes later, Andy Goode in his own 22 kicking for touch when surely if England had retained possession of the ball and played through the phases, they’d have maintained control and gone on to win the game.

Two decades on I'm still annoyed that Andy Goode won man of the match

Best thing is d commentary though England were going to win and Shane Horgan got a brilliant try

What was Matt Dawson moaning about right at the end?

How often is the man of the match on the losing side?! ;-)

Incredibly poor game management by ROG, seconds to go and he repeatedly kicks it out, giving England several chances to steal the game, that wouldn't happen today

Commentary on high tackle was wrong even at the time or no? Nipple line used to be difference between high tackle or not?

Woohoo, IRELAND

Come on Ireland!!!!! 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪

Come on Ireland today is my birthday and it will be more sweet when we win the grand slam on home soil 😉

Old school ref, They're all twice As fit and half his age now

Poor game management to kick it out twice with time on the clock and give England the ball; why not just run down the clock while keeping possession?

Tommy Bowe in the Thumbnail???

Come on Ireland 🇮🇪

Cmon Ireland let’s win toda

Too many ads. Here's $1 Six Nations.
