Match Summary:
Ireland and Scotland kicked off the festivities with a last minute heartstopper, the two Great Britain nations deadlocked at 18-all inside the final three minutes before Irish skipper Tyrone McCarthy barged over to seal a 22-18 victory.

A hat-trick of tries to electric Irish winger Tom Gaffney proved the difference between the two sides, with the Scots drawing level twice in the second half only to have their spirit broken by McCarthy’s late four-pointer.
