Nice to see it compressed timing wise, the 12 then wait til 5 a bit annoying for doing other stuff. All eyes on the 9pm local kick off though in Paris. A venue that Ireland haven't had huge amounts of success in recent years, and against a ferocious South Africa that held Scotland to just 3 points a fortnight ago

But Georgia could do with a confidence boost, England might get a wake up call from Chile too, so all good to watch today!

Home UTC +1 Away
Georgia 1300 Portugal
England 1645 Chile
South Africa 2000 Ireland

As always, shots from pitchside, the pub, or your clubhouse all more than appreciated - please do share! And keep hydrated ;)

Ireland were the target going into this tournament, South Africa just looking immense. Of course Ireland are our bogey team, so it's going to need us to be at our 100% best AND a healthy dose of luck. Means likely France as a quarter, which Scotland would take over the All Blacks too. So yes, a bruising encounter for Ireland is what I'm hoping for, with a nice BP win for us tomorrow
