You beat me to the post. I'd like to know as well.
Perhaps nine is pissed off losing the footy rights next year and not
going to show them. If that is the case then the ABC ought to be
allowed to do it then this sort of thing would never happen.

Its great tv watching these tests against Irelamd. I wish they'd have
5 matches over the two matches. I don't even know where the 2 tests
are for this year.

I thought I recall ten saying they had it at the end of
the sport news one day last week.. They also mentioned getting
some of the Australian rugby matches which is great considering
the shit we've had to put up with from 7 in rugby terms down
here.

Thanks.

[Ext User(bosustow)]

Agreed, they are good to watch, allot of people put shit on the games, but
once a year is OK.

Agreed they should be best of 3, as then each match really means something.

As it is now, if the winning team wins by a big margin in game one, then
game to can be pointless.

One test is in Dublin, the capital. Crow Park or Lansdowne Road. The other
test is in Galway on the west coast. A beautiful part of the country on
Loch Corrib and Connemara with the Aran Islands in Galway Bay.

From reading todays paper I got the impression they had already played
one test. I can't remember seeing it on 10 on last Saturday.

This weeks match in Galway is the first one. The second test will be on at
Croke Park on Nov 5th.

There is actually - 12pm is accepted as being midday or noon and 12am is
accepted as being midnight.
So there, you've learned something new.

Only among the ill-informed.

(Midday is *the meridian* so can be neither AM nor PM. Similarly
Midnight can be *both* before the meridian (AM) or after the meridian
(PM). Safer when pedantic old pricks like me are around to just use
midday or midnight.)

Even that wouldn't be correct, as midday is not at that time. The
middle of the day is later on. Similarly for midnight.
