Japan it was so unexpected and exciting

Donegal

Green&Red

6-4 to Japan currently

Weepsie

Japan. And because I missed the nominations, someone better have put Derek Redmond 92 Olympics in, as that's the correct answer

Tell me how

Donegal

There was something about those Northern teams winning All Irelands in the early 90's. They seemed to revel in it more than those from the south.

Green&Red

Japan make it through

Green&Red

Munster's miracle match against Gloucester, did they really find the tactics book in the back of a cab?

The big breakthrough in 2009, O'Gara's drop goal in Cardiff to win the glam slam after 60 years

Green&Red

No real contest here even for Munster fans
O’Gara & co

ArnoldJRimmer

Since I have to choose between one eggball event and another, I suppose it has to be O'Gara

Tell me how

Munster's win here.

The height of the challenge was greater in their game than in the Welsh match.

Weepsie

Dropgoal in Cardiff.

Electric Nitwit

Glad I missed the last round. I'm a Donegal fan and I was at the Japan match!

Clearly the grand slam for this one. I still remember their kick hanging for ever and then falling short

jasonb

The Wales game for me...

The Welsh game.

pc7

Wales for me! Still smile thinking of ROG face and swinging arms after it went over.

Omackeral

Grand Slam. Then Bernard Dunne went on to win the World Title that night in the boxing. Savage day.

Green&Red

So Irish ROG demolishes Munster ROG to advance

Green&Red

Next up


Cameroon and their flag dancing striker Roger Milla, loved these guys. The "tackling" of Canaggia was pure sh!thousery of the highest order

V

Another grand slam, this time it seemed at lot easier, once we got over France that is

Green&Red

I’m going to go for Cameroon here, I find it very hard to identify with this Irish team.

Italia 90 was the first World Cup I watched and Cameroon were amazing, could easily have beaten England that year too

Collie D

I'm sure I'm on a loser here but I loved Milla and that Cameroon team in what was the first World Cup I fully got into.

pc7

England, not often we beat them at home let alone get the slam.

ArnoldJRimmer

Has to be Cameroon. I love it when a new team lights up the world cup, but this team, along with Ireland are the abiding memories of Italia 90. Aside from the filthy tackles, they played some decent football, with Roger Milla as their superstar

Rugby slam

Seeing Brazil lose home to Germany was great.

Already eliminated. It’s a head to head comp

Currently Ireland’s Grand Slam 2018 edition V Roger Milla and Cameron Italia 90

Omackeral

Roger Milla's antics probably influenced a whole generation of kids in his country and continent. The flag dance was iconic in and of itself. Cameroon for me.

Zaph

Cameroon, rugby bores me to tears, whereas Roger Milla and co were a joy to watch.

David Luiz crying at the end was the icing on the cake

Tell me how

Cameroon, by a disinterested whisker.

Green&Red

Cameroon on the brink 6-2
