    We hung on there a bit at the end but what a massive series win that is. 6 nations champions and a grand slam and now a series win in Australia to round out the season not forgetting at the club level Leinster winning both the Champions league and the pro 14. Has to be the greatest season ever in Irish Rugby history.

    Celtic Park will host the 2019 Guinness PRO14 Final on May 25 as the Championship takes another historic step as the showpiece event is held outside of a traditional rugby venue for the very first time.

    Fresh from the success of the 2018 Guinness PRO14 Final in Dublin that saw a new record attendance set for the third year in a row, Glasgow will play host as the Championship decider returns to Scotland for the first time since 2016.

    Breezy win really, Wallabies held it together for the first half but fell apart after the break.

    New Zealand 40-12 Australia

    Similar game to last week. Competitive first half, one-way traffic for the second. Barrett had a good night with 4 tries.

    Ended up going to the South Africa test. Thrilling and competitive game from a neutral perspective, atrocious result from my utterly biased perspective!

    Bonkers game really. Credit to Japan for not getting too disheartened and still putting in a shift for the full 80. They scored some lovely tries. AB’s depth impressive as expected, and reasonably cohesive despite being a scratch side cobbled together for a one-off game.
