1. Has to be the grand Slam, it may even be my best Irish Sporting memory as it was a whole nation in celebration that day.
2. Leinster beating Toulouse in 2006, what a day to be in France
3. Hammering England in Croker
4. 2003 Munster 'Miracle' match, what a display from and Irish province to hammer a top English side like that
5. 1991 Rugby World cup when the Aussies beat us in LR, but for a few minutes we believed it was on....
Grand Slam Saturday!
