PARIS (Reuters) - More than an hour after clinching his second Six Nations title, Brian O'Driscoll still wore his green jersey as the iconic Ireland centre tried to milk every moment back at the venue where his love affair with the championship really started.

"I can't have it all but it's the best you get, it has been a fantastic Six Nations for us," O'Driscoll told a news conference following his last match for his country, a 22-20 victory over France that secured the title on points difference from England.
