WATCH – Munster lock Billy Holland talks Ireland Grand Slam hopes

Munster stalwart Billy Holland believes that it was a great achievement for Ireland to wrap up the Six Nations title with a game to go but knows that the side will want to go on and win the Grand Slam against England.

“To have won the Six Nations with a game to go is pretty unique but I’m sure their just focused on winning the Grand Slam.”

Holland says that the concept of winning the Grand Slam in Twickenham is something special but won’t come easy.

“It’s an incredibly difficult place to go but Ireland have a lot of confidence at the moment. You have to be wary of an English team with that many quality players who have lost their last two games.
