My home team Edinburgh trying to knock the only unbeaten team of the URC down a peg on Saturday, and a mouth watering Irish clash Friday night!

Anyone off to see any this weekend?

Oh right, so they'd only put a URC game in Murrayfield if it was a big one like a playoff where the extra capacity is warranted?

One thing that was kinda cool about the NPC this year is the bigger unions that have struggled to fill their Super Rugby / International sized stadiums were forced to play games elsewhere because of the FIFA Womens World Cup taking over those stadiums. It made a lot more sense having NPC sized crowds in smaller grounds including a return to the Onewa Domain for the Battle of the Bridge this year. That ground hadn't hosted a match that big in 30 years.
