THE GUINNESS PRO14 has confirmed that this season’s final between Leinster and Munster will take place at the RDS Arena on Saturday 27 March with a 5pm kick-off.
The game will be broadcast live on TV by eir Sport and TG4 in Ireland.
The Pro14 final can’t take place in the Aviva Stadium due to the Republic of Ireland football team facing Luxembourg in a 2022 World Cup Qualifier at that venue on the same date.
Instead, Leinster will have a home final at the RDS, albeit without any supporters in attendance.
“Leinster will host Munster by virtue of their superior match point total at their home ground,” says a Pro14 statement.
This will be just the third time Leinster and Munster meet in the league decider.
Back in 2001 at Lansdowne Road, Leinster side won the first-ever Celtic League trophy against Munster.
In the 2011 final, Munster came out on top at Thomond Park.
Rip Eamonn condolences to the family
Great GAA man, RIP
That’s very sad, RIP. What happened to him?
@macca1986: None of ur business. Nor is it important at this time
@James: spot on, just pay ur respects. RIP and condolences to his family
@James: only normal to wonder when a news story is portrayed but nothing is stated. As I said RIP, very sad.
@James: it’s an honest question, asked out of concern. No need to be Mr Dick.
@macca1986: agreed Macca, yer man James is a flute. To answer your question(asked in a genuinely concerned manner) he died of a heart attack this morning. I met him at the Kerry-Tyrone semi final in August as we were both in the Hogan Stand. I recognised him and chatted with him briefly. Such a nice man. RIP.
@James: no need to be rude. It’s just a question lad.
Rest in peace.
Thanks for the memories Eamonn. Ar dheis de go raibh a anam.
R.I.P. very good player in a very good team. 55 is way to young to go.
God rest his soul rip.
RIP. Very young. Remember his 2 points well. Vital scores. Down showed the way for Ulster to dominate for the majority of the 90s. Great servant to his county and sport. Condolences
