On what has been described as “the greatest day in Six Nations history” (Sunday Telegraph, not us), Ireland of course take all the plaudits.

Of course, if you’re an England fan or a Scottish fan, it doesn’t make for such great reading.
Sorry we’re not sorry.
Hurray, for the Irish Sun’s pun. The Irish pun on punday… No?
