Re: The Official Irish Rugby Thread
The seat map is back. If they've opened the full stadium (maybe some sections held back?) then it's basically sold out. If you want to go, get on there ASAP. I'm sure there's an allocation that Saints have that might return some tickets and there's also the Premium ticket holders on Croke Park who ...

Re: The Official Irish Rugby Thread
Leinster nearly more popular that Taylor swift :lol: How many tickets will saints get allocated? I know in the old days the away team were given the option of 25% of tickets for knockouts, now obviously they wouldn't take up that many, but they had their own pre-sale same as Leinster did.

doing well to get over 60k id say.. given prices and limit on kids tickets shame munster couldnt beat northampton I would say it won't be far off selling out, the novelty factor of playing in Croke Park will be big.

Re: The Official Irish Rugby Thread
Each contract is underpinned by the union on a scaled payment structure of €50,000, €90,000 or €110,000, and is individually supplemented by the provinces as they see fit or can afford. Lol. This is why they always voted to retain it. The uplift from getting a player on a central probably not nearl...
