    All Italy match tickets seem to be sold now too. That's pretty impressive demand overall has to be said.

    I still reckon more will be released as time goes on

    You reckon the IRFU are taking a leaf out of World Rugby's book and drip feeding supply to scupper the touts?
    I suppose it's possible!

    More likely returns will come back from Italy or from clubs.

    Yeah I know...tongue was in my cheek!

    But unless they've changed the ratio of tickets that go to clubs, the visiting team, supporters club/public sale, then it seems to me that demand is definitely higher for these 3 games than 2 years ago.

    Hence it should follow that returned tickets will be sparse, no?

    Why did they allow 4 for Wales? Seems very unfair!

    I don't understand that at all. I am wondering were the IRFU expecting the demand to be so strong.

    If any section or club don't take up their proposed allocation then they usually end up with a reduction next time round. Perhaps they had a few to pay around with?

    Last time Australia and New Zealand came (2013), we were allowed to buy up to four tickets for each match, as I recall. Certainly I bought the triple pack for four of us.

    The all blacks game will sell very fast I imagine but autumn tickets are always easier to get than six nations ones.

    Not on your own membership. If you can use someone elses membership number and log in through their account then yeah you can buy more if they're still available.

    indeed, the system won't even allow you to try and buy more than 2 per member so no issues around losing other tickets

    Hi,

    I was wondering if it is still possible to get tickets for any of the home games? I was looking online and tickets on tout websites are mostly 200+ euro.

    Very inexperienced rugby ticket buyer and only thought of it as a christmas gift recently. I couldn't figure out the mrsc site to find Ireland tickets :(

    No chance for Wales and a very slim chance of any making a public sale for Scotland. The Italy game will have a fair few that make Ticketmaster. You will find some on sale online but it can be pricy and risky. Besides that some are available through hospitality or travel companies but they will be as part of a package and priced accordingly.

    Yeah I had a look around the travel companies but they don't really suit. I was able to get tickets to the Scotland game through the Munster supporters club however.

    I look forward to all news from the supporter clubs I've joined over the last two days :)
