  • Ireland won a Triple Crown in 2004 kicking it off with this win against Wales in the old Lansdowne Road. Brian O'Driscoll's hair was a highlight but enjoy the best of the action from this classic match. #teamofus

    Incredible to see how many of these Irish players still involved in the game whether it be coaching or punditry.

    The problem with these videos is it makes me nostalgic for a time when Ireland was pretty average at rugby. Like look at the old Lansdowne, what a beautiful ground she was

      Couldn’t agree more. But as much as I enjoy them winning, we don’t need to be the best to enjoy the game. People forget that I think

      100%. This was my favourite Irish side. Maybe with the addition of hickie, Darcy, ferris

      Happy memories of the place but the facilities were nonexistent and it was always windy. If there wasn’t so many corporate tickets in the place these days, we might get some of the atmosphere back.

      @@davidseanrussell4152 you're probably right, and I hope it doesn't reach a point where it gets dull because we're winning left, right and centre. Maybe not this six nations, but hopefully next year some of the other nations can land a bit of a challenge to Ireland just to give the competition a bit of substance. But then again, careful what I wish for lol
