Re: Leinster v Northampton Saints - EPCR Semi-Final Croke Park 4th May

Why? We’re allowed to do it in the Aviva From the article in The Independent: “Rugby fans are typically allowed to bring alcoholic drinks back to their seats at the Aviva Stadium however event organisers European Professional Club Rugby (EPCR) have said GAA rules will remain in place for the first ...

Re: A whiff of Cordite

Lads... There's a very tetchy mode on here (not just this thread) over the last couple of weeks. Probably not unrelated to the run in and last year's events.

Might be nice to take a breath before responding sometimes.

Re: Ireland v Italy in Rome - 15 March 2025

I've never done the trip to Rome before and am considering it next year. Anyone any tips? I remember from looking at it last year that flights on a Friday - Sunday from Dublin seemed to be absolutely mental. Is that always the way? Are tickets generally OK and any good accomodation options? I have ...

Re: Leinster move to Aviva Stadium for 24/25

So move the whole stand because of 30 people? Or 50 or 100 or whatever? Yup... That's what I'd guess they'll do (or at least wait and see how many renew). If you said to someone ... I know your previous seat was on the halfway, but enjoy your new one on the goaline... It'd be unfair. More fair to s...

Re: Leinster move to Aviva Stadium for 24/25

No clue why this means we can't keep our seats. Cause the people currently sitting at the bottom half of the "D" won't have a seat (and maybe those in the first row or two if that's where the subs bench goes). So either they move those people down the very end (bit unfair) or they have to...

Re: Leinster v Northampton Saints - EPCR Semi-Final Croke Park 4th May

Yes I think the commercials and brand enhancement are massive (although, I suspect the shirt sponsorship, pooled approach with Bank of Ireland) might be less than the potential sum of the parts. The other intangible is the connection with new supporters. There were lots of families and young childr...

Re: Leinster v Northampton Saints - EPCR Semi-Final Croke Park 4th May

Prize money goes to whoever the stakeholder is and it's their job to distribute it - so in our case the IRFU, for English clubs it's the RFU/PRL, etc. The real value isn't the prize money, it's in selling the win. Sponsorship bonuses, increased sponsorship value and opportunities, increased ticket ...

Apparently over 33,000 tickets have already sold before it even goes on general sale tomorrow that’s fantastic - also likely to be a good crowd from Northampton on those numbers That's fantastic!
