Ireland 6 nations 2015 schedule
Here is the schedule for the 2015 RBS 6 nations rugby. All times are in GMT. Ireland have their opening game of the tournament against Italy, away at home at the Stadio Olimpico on Saturday the 7th of February 2015.
Wales vs. England on Friday 6th of February at the Millennium Stadium is the opening game of the 2015 tournament. This is the first time that the opening game will take place on a Friday. Perviously some games had been played on a Friday due to time limitations & clashes with the Champions League.
Our second game is against France, on the following Saturday at home. Having an easier first game, and a tougher home game before we take on England also at home is about as optimal as a schedule can get. After the outstanding performance of the Autumn Internationals the expectations are high for this Irish team. 2015 is also a World Cup year and we are sure new tactics will be tested out during the 6 nations.
Home vs Away
Our home games are : France, England
Our away games are : Italy,Wales & Scotland
We have 2 home games,these would be classed as the harder of the games, although Wales are always a tough team, and we face them away at Millennium Stadium.
As with previous years all the final games will happen on the same day, Saturday March 21th. Ireland will take on Scotland, away and it will be the second last game of the entire series. England close out the tournament against France at Twickenham which very well may be the deciding game.
