Benetton away in January, get the trip to South Africa done in October with the Sharks maybe missing their Springboks etc. Interesting to play two inter pros in first 3 games. I wonder which week the Irish players from New Zealand tour will be involved from.

Heineken Cup Semi Finals Apr 28-30
United Rugby Championship Quarter Finals May 5-7
United Rugby Championship Semi Finals May 12-14
Heineken Cup Final Saturday May 20
United Rugby Championship Final Saturday May 27

What plonker decides it’s a good idea having interpros without the international players?

Talk about not considering the fans

The leinster home game could see quite a few integrated back in. Could be 2 strong sides come then.
Also interesting that we get leinster the week before Europe begins which has normally been the preserve of munster.

Hmmm.

It’s La Rochelle a few days later.

Might just leave it on.

Only got the weekends today, get actual days/times etc next week. For example, in Round 1, we host Connacht on weekend of Friday September 16 - Sunday September 18.

Hotel prices in Limerick are a bit steep for the end of October.

Something else on?

Terry Wogan Appreciation Society Annual Conference?

World Turnip Eating Championship?

Never cheap in Limerick to be fair for the decent ones, probably prices increased post COVID. The game is the week before Ireland v South Africa, so no internationals will be involved probably.

Ah so it is.

Think I was there over Easter once. Wasn’t much to see apart from the Castle.

My recollection is that Dan said we might see DV about then but Irish players only miss week 1!
