But for the width of an upright at Parc y Scarlets last week, Ireland would be squaring up to England in a Triple Crown decider at Dubarry Park, Athlone, on this Friday night, kick off 7.45pm. Nevertheless, that last kick conversion attempt by Paddy Jackson that rebounded into play and left Ireland and Wales deadlocked at 26-26 after an exhilarating encounter will not diminish Ireland’s desire to defeat their arch rivals in what should be a right good ESB Electric Ireland u20 Six Nations championship match at the Athlone stadium. And when better to conquer the ‘old enemy’ than on St Patrick’s weekend!
