We've won. We've won. By a huge margin. Just making my way back to Valleys now.

Hardly any support for our brave boys though :-( :-( :-( And why have all the Scottish players got Italian names :-S :-S :-S

And why did we play in white reserve strip. And why could no one but me sing "Swing Low". Bit disppointed in my first live international, to be honest.

Brian O'Driscoll must be feeling emotional on this his last international game!

Wonderful exit for him if Ireland win the Championship!

HERE COME THE ANTHEMS

Ireland's Call

Come the day and come the hour
Come the power and the glory
We have come to answer
Our Country's call
From the four proud provinces of Ireland

Ireland, Ireland
Together standing tall
Shoulder to shoulder
We'll answer Ireland's call

From the mighty Glens of Antrim
From the rugged hills of Galway
From the walls of Limerick
And Dublin Bay
From the four proud provinces of Ireland

Ireland, Ireland
Together standing tall
Shoulder to shoulder
We'll answer Ireland's call

Hearts of steel
And heads unbowing
Vowing never to be broken
We will fight, until
We can fight no more
From the four proud provinces of Ireland

Ireland, Ireland
Together standing tall
Shoulder to shoulder
We'll answer Ireland's Call
