So one persons view on it.. thanks 

We're you expecting an article joint written by 10 people?

Well if it was plenty of creditable sports journos you'd look at it, but if someone like you who doesn't even know the rules of GAA says something then I'll not worry about it..

It was a sporting first for Ireland, take it for what it is. The best team (ranked one) is beaten over 3 games

Nope.

In tbe context of a conversation about the press losing the run of themselves an article describing the tour win as Ireland's best ever sporting result was mentioned. You seemed to disbelieve this and when shown up are complaining it's only one article. You would give anadin a headache

I personally couldn't care less, today at Croke park watching our National sport will always be the best Irish sporting moments

I'm debating you're complaining, you're claiming one sport has reason to pick no birth players over another and want them to change their rules..... wise up. If it's within the rules it's within the rules ya ejjit

That's quite the strawman. As in you are arguing something nobody said.

Well done Ireland Rugby in winning somewhere that only a few other nations have managed to do so.

Credit where it's due.

Haven't had a chance to watch it back..

[Truth hurts]

Well done to Ireland on winning two friendlies with cherries on top. I really don't get this test crap in Rugby.

As a fellow Down man, I think we'd take any sort of win, friendly or otherwise at the moment.

Surely, in the hierarchy of Rugby's Roll of honour- It
Would be
1. World Cup Winners
2. SIX nations - grand slam
3. Triple Crown
4. Test Victory ?

Yeah but the Rugby lads... y'know the ones who have been involved in the game all their lives and played it at the top level... are saying it's Irelands best ever achievement!

As lads who only started following Rugby in the early 2000s do we just ignore their opinion and pretend we know better?

But they have form talking shite.

Remember when they beat the AB's in Chicago. That was Ireland's best ever result in any sport. The soccer lads beat Germany the next day. It wasn't even the best Irish result of the week

Here's Keith Wood's take on it...

Only 3 countries had previously won a test series in nz plus the lions once.
Anyone who played a test match against nz would probably not call it a friendly.
