Sexton's 16 points against Tonga made him Ireland's all-time leading points scorer in Test rugby
“I think one of the lads said it to me under posts [that it was the record] and I actually thought I got it on the kick before.
“And some of the other 10s, it’s there to be broken now and I’m sure some young guys will be eyeing it up. I’m very proud to do it but tonight was more of getting the win and moving on to such a massive game now this week.” Little else will matter to him, like the fact that he is not to everyone’s taste. He would have expected to break the record before the World Cup in the summer warm-up Tests, only to be handed a three-game ban for telling the referees after the Heineken Cup final that it was “a disgrace you guys can’t get the big decisions right”, with a few f-words thrown in for good measure. He wasn’t even playing in the game.
