I was there! The only 6 nations match I've watched live. Is there a recording of the whole game out there anywhere please anyone?
This game was the wake-up call for Irish rugby to get with the times, plus nine of those players were booted off the team, some for good.
Conor o'shea had bad injury cudnt make squad in 2001
So much space, international teams defences so much more organised these days.
