Wallabies number eight David Pocock and Ireland halfback Conor Murray clashed in Sydney on Saturday but as the Australian pointed out on Twitter, there rivalry goes back 13 years.
Pocock Tweeted a photo of himself and Murray during a 2005 rugby trip to Ireland whenhe was billeted out.
"In 2005 on the Australian Schoolboys tour of UK and Ireland we were billeted out with families in Limerick. The family I was billeted with: the Murrays. I don't think @ConorMurray_9 or I were thinking we'd go on to face each other in test rugby. Great to catch up after the game," Pocock Tweeted.
