sporty weekend ahead.

The Irish Womens Rugby team are playing this evening against Scotland. Hopefully they will do well. Unfortunately, the game is on at 6pm which gives people very little chance to get to the game after work. It is a pity the game is not on a Sunday or even a precursor to the big game on Saturday, as might encourage more interest. It is also a pity that there is such poor coverage about the Womens' games, trying to get the result is very difficult.

There should be a good hurling game on Sunday in Limerick at 2.00pm. Port Omna (Gaillimh) are playing Luachna – Caislean Laighnigh (Tiobraid Árann) in the semi finals of the club championship, while Biorra (Uíbh Fhailí) are playing Cu Chullian (Aontroim) in Clones at same time.
