An Introduction to Ireland Rugby Shirt 1948 Grand Slam

Ireland Rugby Shirt 1948 Grand Slam. Our inspiration. The Ellis Rugby Rugby Shirt is inspired by the famous Ireland Rugby 1948 Grand Slam captained by Karl Mullen. And for one game by Ernest Strathdee.

Ireland won the first-ever Grand Slam on March 13, 1948. At Ravenhill Road, Belfast with a victory over Wales. Ireland won the tournament opener against France in Paris on New Year’s Day. Ireland defeated the French 13-6. Two of their tries came from debutants. These include Centre Paddy Reid and flanker Jim McCarthy.

Also, the third from goal-kicking winger Barney Mullan. Strangely, the selectors made five more changes for the following match, for instance. This was six weeks later at Twickenham. Also, among them was the axing of scrum-half and captain Ernie Strathdee. As a result, the Captaincy was given to hooker Karl Mullen.

Ireland won 11-10 at Twickenham. With two away wins secured, home victories over Scotland and Wales would give Ireland their best-ever season. Also, Scotland were seen off first 6-0 at Lansdowne Road, with tries from Jack Kyle and Barney Mullan.
