Italian rugby fans travelling to Dublin

OK the Irish Vs Italy rugby game is not going to take place this weekend . But most or all Italian fans would have booked flights and hotels in Dublin before the game was cancelled . My point is what is to stop these fans from travelling to Dublin for the weekend anyway ?

But I wouldn't expect those outside to pick it except in the more extreme versions, maybe. A Yank wouldn't have a...

No Corkman in the Irish rugby team

There is no Corkman in the Irish rugby team to play Scotland on Saturday and only one Limerick man and he can be considered lucky to get the start

There has always been at least a few Limerick players and Cork players on an Irish rugby team for as long as I can remember
