Ireland claimed back to back Six Nations titles yesterday.

Rugby
Ireland captain Peter O'Mahony says if yesterday was his last game in green, it wasn't a bad one to go out on.

The Munster man lead his side to another Six Nations championship thanks to a 4 point win over Scotland at the Aviva Stadium.

The 34 year old has won 4 titles and 2 Grand Slams with his country during his 12 years in international rugby.

He says he will now take time to decide if it's time to hang up his boots:

 
France needed a last minute penalty to beat England by 2 points and secure a second placed finish.

Italy recorded two wins in the tournament for just the third time in their history with a 3 point victory over Wales yesterday.

Gaelic Games

Kildare will play Division 3 League football next season following yesterday’s defeat to Donegal.

Alex Beirne's goal 14 minutes into the second half closed the gap to just two points between the sides.

Here's Kildare manager Glenn Ryan:

Kildare have one game left to play in Division 2 against Louth on Saturday night.
