When Ireland traveled to Twickenham on the last day of the 2006 Championship, a win for either side would hand them the Triple Crown.

With Ireland trailing by three points and stuck deep in their own 22, Ronan O'Gara chipped the ball over the on coming English defence before Brian O'Drsicoll gathered it and fed Shane Horgan who made huge yards up the right wing.

The towering wing was hauled down just five metres from the English line. The ball was recycled and after two phases was fed back to the Leinster winger who drove for the corner!

After consulting the TMO - the try was good and with O'Gara's touchline conversion going over, Ireland would hold on and win the Triple Crown.
