Ireland players shocked everyone with a rendition of ' Swing Low, Sweet Chariot' following their Triple Crown triumph in Dublin.
The video, which sees the likes of Johnny Sexton and Conor Murray belting out the famous English anthem, sees the full squad singing the song because if England had beat France, Ireland would have taken the title.
Nevertheless, it's still a bit weird to get your head around.

- Jordie Barrett over Damian de Allende is far from being correct. The hype around Dupont is also overreaching, he's probably 4th in the world and has been since the 2023 WC. He also avoids certain matchups which is strange. The rest of the list is pretty good apart from minor subjective biases.JasonMarlow16-09-2026
