Dieg O'Maradona, we claim you for Ireland.

There have been some brilliant Irish flags and banners at this Rugby World Cup but the latest, Argentina-inspired effort takes some beating. Harking back to El Diego's 'Hand of God' against England, in the 1986 World Cup, the tricolour claims he is a handy man for a lineout. We could do with him snatching Rory Best throws today, especially with Paul O'Connell laid low. https://twitter.com/Darrenfrehill/status/655695766535712768
