Rugby fan Nan’s moment of Six Nations glory

While celebrations were in full flow in the Four Seasons Hotel in Dublin, Irish rugby star Jordi Murphy had no idea that his medal was in the hands of a rugby-mad granny a few miles across the city.

It all started when Stephen Murphy, 13, decided to take up a plum position next to the team bus when he and his father went to Dublin Airport to welcome his heroes home.

As with any young fan, he was hoping to get his hands on an autograph or, preferably, a souvenir from one of the team.
