"Ireland are Triple Crown winners for the 15th time thanks to a 12th consecutive win over Scotland, whose long search for success in Dublin will stretch into its 18th year before they get another chance to end their dismal record."
"Scotland arrived at the Aviva Stadium brimming with confidence following last week's win over France, but they were unable to hit those heights again, as Ireland did what they always do against the Scots - dominated them up front."
Ireland secured the Triple Crown for the 15th time with a 43-21 victory over Scotland at the Aviva Stadium. This marks Ireland's 12th consecutive win against Scotland, who have not won in Dublin for 18 years. Despite arriving with confidence following their previous week's victory over France, Scotland failed to replicate that performance. Ireland's dominance stemmed from their superior forward play, a consistent advantage they maintain against the Scottish team. The result underscores Ireland's established superiority in this fixture.
