Well done Ireland - thoroughly deserved.

Just a simple question from a simple person who still doesn't understand all the rules, and probably never will: given that the ball is NEVER fed into the scrum straight why don't they save time by simply handing the ball over (possibly with an optional handshake?  :wub:)
Sow your seeds, plant your plants. What's the difference? A couple of weeks or more when answering possible queries!

One of the best things about being an orang-utan is the fact that you don't lose your good looks as you get older

Probably the precursor to uncontested scrums soon, Jay.

When I was in the front row, the ball had to go in straight, but that was quite a few years ago...

The laws just keep changing 'to make the game faster/more interesting!

Not sure about that, but the game today is more like the seven-a-sides we watched and played in the sixties!

Congratulations Ireland on winning the Grand Slam, well deserved. Wales finish 2nd, under the circumstances I'm quite relieved!
Cheers
