Whole Ireland team gatecrash star's house after he refuses fourth night of Grand Slam celebrations

The whole Ireland team descended on Garry Ringrose's house for a fourth day of celebrations after the centre said he didn't want to go out drinking again.

Andy Farrell's side secured their fifth championship in the Six Nations era on Super Saturday with a 29-16 victory over England at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin.

The team have been relentless with their celebrations, with wing Mack Hansen leading the charge, which Johnny Sexton revealed on The Good, The Bad and The Rugby podcast. Hansen told RTÉ after the game that his plans were to "drink, drink, drink, drink".

The team have taken the meaning of "no man left behind" to the next level in this viral clip. A minibus pulled up outside Ringrose's home, and a long line of Grand Slam champs flooded into the house, with what appears to be the British & Irish Lion's dad. He has a grin on his face and a beer in hand as the likes of Hugo Keenan and Peter O'Mahony flood in.

O'Mahony was particularly animated when a voice told him "This is South County Dublin!"

"I'm getting some f*****g tour here!" he replied.

The players joked with Ringrose's father, "do you have a spare room for Pete?!"

The players are all gathered in the kitchen as the cameraman walks in, all singing 'Happy Birthday'.

The clip has picked up 400,000 views on RugbyLAD's Twitter since it was posted on Wednesday night. Rugby fans thought it was top class.

"Now that's family!" said one.

"Outstanding," said another.

Warning: Offensive language

Just a few weeks ago, Ringrose was given oxygen on the field against Scotland at Murrayfield after sustaining a head injury while trying to tackle fly-half Blair Kinghorn. The star was ruled out of the clash against England on the final day, but providing he is fit, he will hope to part of Farrell's plans for the World Cup later this year.

The players are clearly enjoying their downtime after an historic first Grand Slam victory in Dublin, but it won't be long before they have to gear up for United Rugby Championship action again with their respective teams as we draw closer to the end of the season.
