For all who can't make it to a pub and/or can't get premier sports 2, the game is being shown on eir sport directly after both the Munster and Leinster games on the respective Eir sports channels, not quite as good as being live, but not too bad. The reason that TG4 are likely showing the same game as Eir when connacht's game isn't being shown live at all is probably because Eir want to show Munster and TG4 aren't going to head over to Scotland.

Edit: So that means a 10pm start on Eir Sport 2, or a 10:15 start on Eir Sport 1.

It's up against a Munster match, so those of us who are locationally challenged will have to make the trip to Murtys. For pints, food, match and craic. It's a tough life.

Does this mean a few new faces in the 23 in Rome? Or just keeping the powder dry for Ospreys?

I'd guess neither. Just that Connacht travel today & Ireland don't until tomorrow.

I just noticed an Instagram story from Peter Robb that looks like it was shot this morning/today.
It's tagged as Sandycove in Dublin.

Now, he may have traveled up to Dublin on his own last night, but the rest of the team are the bus today.
I wonder is Tom Farrell going to be released, and Robb will drop from the squad altogether


@ConnachtCows - Always looking for new followers :)

Very bad news on that front. Apparently Premier Sports 2 is not available in Ireland. Rabbitt's only have Premier 1. So it won't be on live.
Same goes for any pub.
That's a royal feck up on the part of the Pro14.

Two channels are showing the Munster match. None are showing the Connacht match. Like, it doesn't even make sense!

If they could even persuade Premier Sports to switch it to either Premier 1 or Free Sports, we'd be sorted.
I'm confused as to why Premier 1 is available in Ireland but not Premier 2.
Not too late to book a flight over :-)

Have a funny feeling it's intentional, rather than by omission. Premier have the rights for the Pro14 in the UK, and Eir have them for (republic of) Ireland.

Dunno why both Eir Sports 2 and TG4 are showing the Munster game, surely it'd to be everyones benefit not to split the audience? Feck.

Eir showed our away game against Ulster live on YouTube. Don't suppose they would do it again though.
Surprised they don't seem to have a red button option.

Does anyone know if any pubs are prepared to stream this? Premier Sports 2 is available on dodgy boxes and streaming links are handy enough to come by but pubs may be nervous to stream games.

I thought eir were broadcasting all games. That's what they pitched when I signed up for broadband.

Very annoyed by this. It's what I paid for!
