Grand Slam winners receive heroes' welcome in Dublin

Thousands of supporters have turned out in Dublin to welcome the Irish rugby Grand Slam winning team.

The management and team arrived at Dublin Airport this afternoon and a civic reception is being held for the team outside the Mansion House.

Ronan O'Gara's 77th minute drop goal sealed the win, giving Ireland its first Grand Slam since 1948.

O'Gara said nerves were high during the historic clash.
