Edinburgh have signed a 7 figure sum with DAM Health over 5 years for the naming rights of mini Murrayfield "Minifield" - The Dam Health Stadium.

Some pun potential there Edinburgh's dam is breached, Dam busters etc.

Their game against Scarlets was good, although one could be forgiven for thinking that Mr Brace seemed keen to ensure they got off to a winning start.

Munster Rugby have nominated an additional 22 players to be registered for the province’s Champions Cup squad.

EPCR confirmed last week that following consultation with the leagues and unions, it has been decided to extend the first registration date to allow all participating clubs to supplement their squads with an unlimited number of previously unregistered players.

Tony Butler, Patrick Campbell and Edwin Edogbo, who all recently joined the Greencore Munster Rugby Academy, are among the new additions although Edwin is currently injured.

The remaining 19 are either NTS (National Talent Squad) or PTS (Provincial Talent Squad) members with all 22 under 21 years of age.
The majority of the 22 have featured for their clubs in the opening rounds of the All Ireland League. 15 of the players lined out for a Munster Development XV in fixtures against Ulster and Leinster earlier this season.

Welsh sides playing home games behind closed doors for foreseeable future from Boxing Day. Glasgow and Edinburgh limited to crowd of 500 for three weeks from Boxing Day.

Munster v Leinster off. The IRFU will be only too happy to postpone the fixture so that it can be played in front of a paying full house at a later date.

Glasgow v Edinburgh now off.

Hoping Quins v Saints manages to survive the next few hours.

Michael Bradley sacked as Zebre head coach, zero wins this season. Not a surprise then. Been there for 4 and half seasons.

Things must be bad if they're importing an Irish fly half.
