O'Connell: I'm very proud of this squad

Captain Paul O'Connell hailed Ireland's historymakers after Joe Schmidt's side secured back-to-back RBS 6 Nations titles for the first time since 1949.

Ireland thumped Scotland 40-10 at Murrayfield to end Wales' last-ditch title challenge, before watching television sets in agony as England battled it out with France at Twickenham.
