The Ireland captain, Peter O’Mahony, declined to discuss his future after his side beat Scotland to retain the Six Nations title
Peter O’Mahony, Ireland’s captain, would not be drawn on his immediate future, having led his team to their second consecutive Six Nations title. “I need to have a talk to my wife and family and have a think about it,” he said. “I won’t be making any decision over the next few days. That was one of the most special days in my career. If not the most.”“When a trophy’s on the line for both of us, that’s how it should be, shouldn’t it. No doubt Scotland will be proud of their performance, too.
Finn Russell, one of Scotland’s co‑captains, lent his voice to the growing feeling, in the northern hemisphere at least, that this Ireland team are special. “I think they’re probably the best in the world,” he said. “This is the hardest place to come in rugby and get a victory.” “We were in contention over the last couple of weeks, which hasn’t been the case before,” he said. “We would have been more so if we’d been awarded that try against France . We’ve had chances to win all our games. The three games we lost were all by less than a score., but we performed well today, and we performed well in our two victories. Two wins is not what we set out to do or what we believe this team is capable of achieving.
