After two and a half years Ireland finally got the performance and the win that could see them back in the big time. Did we miss the signs or did this come out of nowhere? Would it ever have happened without Henshaw’s manic intensity at the start? Was the Earls try proof that Farrell and Mike Catt had the right plan all along but just needed some polish?

We chat to Shane Horgan and Andrew Trimble about using Earls more often, Sexton and Murray’s return to top form, red card drama, French magnificence and if Wales will still win the championship.

Fans make the Six Nations… so how come we’ve just had possibly the most entertaining tournament in living memory?! Ken reckons everyone’s happy, and Stuart Hogg reckons we saw the ‘real’ Scotland on Saturday, conveniently ignoring that pretty much everything that has happened in the last 5 weeks has been 100% pure distilled Scotland rugby.
