Hugo Keenan’s Twickenham try will represent the icing on the cake for a performance in the white heat of Six Nations battle that should be remembered for a long time to come.
There will not be any complaints that scrum-half Jamison Gibson-Park was named man of the match for his significant contribution to Ireland’s landmark 32-15 victory over the 14 men of England but while the full-back did not pick up a medal for his efforts they nevertheless earned the plaudits of his head coach.
