Ireland put in an exceptional performance to beat South Africa at the Aviva Stadium on Saturday evening.
Ian Madigan’s penalty made it 29-15 in what was a classy Irish performance, capped by tries from Rhys Ruddock and Tommy Bowe and an exemplary kicking performance from man of the match Jonny Sexton.
Here’s the reaction to a great win for Joe Schmidt’s side…
I hope someone’s out the back sautéing a hat for George Hook to eat. #IREvsSA

The belief and composure in this Irish team, it’s like nothing we’ve ever seen in an Irish sports’ team before. #SchmidtFactor #IREvRSA
