Johnny Sexton recounts how he lost his Six Nations medal
By Online Editors
Ireland flyhalf Johnny Sexton has shared how he lost his Six Nations medal during the aftermath of his side's Grand Slam triumph last weekend.
Footage shared on social media shows the moment Sexton realised he was without his medal.
Sexton appeared on Irish Independent podcast The Left Wing to reveal that both he and Jordi Murhpy lost their medals post-match.
"Myself and Jordi Muphy were walking around the pitch and I said to him, 'Mate, you lost your medal' and he goes, 'Oh... I think you have too'. Same type of personalities me and Jordi.
"There was one medal on the ground and we couldn't figure out whose it was. He gave that one to me and I'm not sure if he found his one.
"We'll get replacement I'm sure. It was probably yanked off one of us when we were in the crowd with our families.
"Someone sent me the video of myself looking for it. It was quite funny."
Ireland took home the Six Nations title and secured their third Grand Slam with a 24-15 victory over England at Twickenham Stadium last Sunday.

A Turtle has more pace and leg drive than Owen Franks, so it’s a good thing he only had to run 90 metres for that try.
Go to commentsOh Tamati Tua was in the vastly over-rated Leon MacDonalds Blues system? Well, no wonder he was wasted, much like Emoni Narawa and Jacob Ratumaitavuki-Kneepkens under MacDonald. now look at them. Good thing Tua isn’t eligible, the Aussies latch on to any player who isn’t tied down.
