These guys had some good days, some of them had Triple Crowns, Championships and Lions Tours but none of them achieved the Ultimate Prize.

Thank you for our last Slam, your mantle as Grand Slam heroes has stood for 61 years and the passing of that mantle has been long overdue, you've been great ambassadors for the game in this country thank you for the memories!

Feel sorry for the boys visable at the dunne fight tonight - Shaggster and Disco Den - heroes in both Irish and Leinster jerseys - They deserve it as much as the lads in cardiff do now!

Thank you indeed. I am right in saying Mal will indeed get a medal? The few minutes he was on during tourney guarantee that.

Nice thread.

Anyone else at the home coming? Was all the way back at Waterstone's and could hear absolutely nothing. Not sure if it was the mic, or the way Des Cahill was holding it, or a problem with the amps. Pity.

Anyway, great day!
