Ireland team manager Robert Splaine described today's Nations' Cup victory in Athens as 'a cracking way to end the year'.
Ireland had a massive 24-point advantage over second-placed Belgium with mostly single-fence faults and two clear rounds giving them an unbeatable total of just 16 penalties.
Shane Carey and Gerry Flynn delivered single mistakes in the first round on African Drum and Mo Chroi, but both corrected for the second round and produced clear rounds.
Malahide-based Conor Swail had a single fence down in each round with Rivaal while County Mayo's Cameron Hanley had eight faults in the first round, and did not jump in the second.
