The Grand Slam is the ultimate goal, but Ireland's rugby heroes have been enjoying their Six Nations Championship win with family and friends.
Joe Schmidt and his team were full of smiles as they posed for photographs with fans outside the Shelbourne Hotel in Dublin, where they stayed last night following their 28-8 win over Scotland at the Aviva Stadium.
England's defeat in Paris a couple of hours later ensured a third Six Nations title in five years for Ireland.
