That’s another weekend sorted.
There’s an absolute ton of rugby on television over the weekend, with some absolute crackers to look forward to, including some massive derby games in the Guinness PRO14.
Friday night sees Ulster and Connacht battle it out in the first inter-provincial clash of the season, while 45,000 tickets have already been sold for the heavyweight clash between Leinster and Munster at the Aviva on Saturday.
There’s also a Welsh derby to look forward to on Saturday with struggling Ospreys hosting champions Scarlets, and some Rugby Championship action as the All Blacks take on the Springboks and Australia travel to take on Los Pumas.
Sunday sees two belters televised as Saracens host Wasps at a sold-out Allianz Park and La Rochelle host Racing 92 in the Top 14.
