Tomorrow the 6 Nations tournament kicks off with the first game being Ireland V Italy at Croke Park. I am not the biggest rugby fan, I don’t follow a club, but I do enjoy the international games of the World Cup and the 6 Nations. At the moment rugby (union at least, I know little about rugby league) remains untouched, in my perception, by the commercialism that affects football in the uk. I like the fact that the players show respect to the ref and for the most part fans from the opposing teams seem to get along well.
A nice thing they’ve done with the 6nations website is add a rugby games page. Excellent for whiling away a few minutes over a coffee or lunch break.
