I was at the match in Rome where Henderson got the hat-trick so that’s how I remember it!
Think O’Driscoll got a second hat-trick as well against Scotland, possibly in 2002.
He did but you are missing one more
Did Keith Wood get a hat trick against Italy in 2000?

2003: Tommie Joyce misses, by a long way, an easy enough last kick free kick to win the game for Galway in the final, meaningless NFL game against Dublin at Parnell Park. Eyebrows are raised. Why did Tommie Joyce take the kick? Why did he miss so badly? There is a story to be told about this one which will never be told.
The freewheeling Marc O’Se scores a last minute winning goal for Kerry against Armagh at Killarney in a meaningless final NFL game played in summer weather.
2008: No recollection
2014: @The_Scouse_Cafu’s greatest moment in a Liverpool jersey. He gets fouled for a penalty which Steven Gerrard scores as Liverpool win 1-2 at the Boleyn Ground. Liverpool were going to win the league.
Not a lot has happened on Sunday April 6th down the years.

2003: Mike Weir becomes the first Canadian player to win a major championship and the first left handed player to win the US Masters,
2008: Trevor Immelman becomes the first player named Trevor Immelman to win the US Masters. Armagh wallop the fuck out of Dublin at a sunny Crossmaglen.
2014: Bubba Watson becomes the first left handed player named Bubba Watson to win the US Masters for a second time. Steven Gerrard says “this does not slip.” Dublin beat Cork by 10 points after being 22 points behind.

2008: Munster win a Heino Cup semi-finbal thriller at Coventry City’s Highfield Road stadium.
2014: Dominant Dublin defenestrate Derry. The Anfield pitch is watered too much. Sunday April 27th would always be a dark date in the history of Liverpool Football Club.
40 years ago today, in the early minutes past midnight, 29 April 1985, Dennis Taylor potted the final black in the 1985 World Snooker Final
