Connacht up first for Munster boss Graham Rowntree. Ben Brady/INPHO

Fixture schedule released for next season's United Rugby Championship

Connacht and Munster up first in the all-Irish clash.

THE ONLY THING BETTER than more rugby, is knowing who is playing rugby next season when this season has yet to finish up.

In a novel move by the BTK United Rugby Championship, they are calling the release of the 2024/25 season fixtures as โ€˜The first-ever in-season launch.โ€™

Either way, it might serve to whet the appetite in some way. On the first weekend, thereโ€™s an all-Irish fixture with Munster hosting Connacht on Saturday 21 September at 5.30pm. The game will be live on RTร‰.

The night before, Leinster start their climb up the mountain when they travel to Edinburgh, that game kicking off at 7.35pm, and it will be live on TG4.

Richie Murphyโ€™s Ulster start on 21 September when they play at Ravenhill against Glasgow Warriors, the game kicking off at 7.45pm, live on Premier Sports.

    It was a booking, and as he was already booked, two yellows make a red!

    For clarification, it was a second yellow for the sending off and was a definite yellow.

    I think youโ€™ll find it was a second yellow. And he stayed down for treatment on his ankle, or were you watching a different game?!

    Colm Cooper is the Messi of GAA. The most talented player to ever play the game and all the other players can do is foul him as they canโ€™t stop him otherwise. And I am a Cork woman so even I can see he is a genius.
