paddylonglegs

Any good bars either in the city centre or inner surburbs that will be showing the matches?Seeing them live would be great but the time diff I guess will make them be played the next day.

This isn't a sports discussion,but a where to watch sports discussion

paddylonglegs

yeeha, great start to the six nations! Bridie's was jammed last night so I'm sure they will be showing the next game aswell. Good place to watch it if you don't mind everyone being completely smashed - 5 in the morning though, what do ya expect!

Mobooo

yeah on lt collins st, just gave them a ring to make sure. Pj obriens in southgate is definitely not showing it, was in there earlier having an afternoon one and they will be closed at that stage.

youcancallmeal

Was in Bridies last weekend a couple of hours before the Scotland game and the place was disgustingly busy. Everyone was messy and feral. Went home and listened to it on RTE radio webcast instead. So does anyone know if there is any other places showing it that might have a bit more controlled/pleasant atmosphere?

andy87

is that the only pub thats showing the Ireland Wales match??

This thread is 4 years old. Things may have changed since then. Probably best to start a new thread?

Ha ha ha, things have changed alright! I'm long home from oz,married, in a new house, and a baba on the way! Was funny reading back on those posts, good memories and fun in Melbourne and a big Irish rugby crowd. Hope you enjoy watching the matches, there shouldn't be a prob finding a pub

Not sure bridies will have sound for the game?? They might have a band on??

jackbhoy

The Charles Dickens Tavern on Collins will be showing it. The Turf bar on Queen St. will probably be closing early but worth giving them a call to check. The latter is a base for Melbourne Rebels supporters club and is good spot to watch S15 & Wallabies games.

Post up here where yere goin it'd be nice to head somewhere there will be a group of Irish or welsh

cormaclynch

Celtic Club is a pretty safe bet to be showing it

GiftofGab

Ok ill ring bridies on chapel tomorrow, if theres no live music playing im there

What did they say

The elephant and the wheelbarrow in st kilda are showing it with full sound

GiftofGab

Bridies is showing it without sound. Im going to the turf bar to watch it. The misses is up early in the morning so ill be there on my own with my Irish jersey. Still very excited

Kiith

Will probably go to The Elephant & Wheelbarrow myself. It's late enough though, and have to be up early tomorrow, so won't be drinking too much...at least that's the plan

GiftofGab

Anybody find any places close to south yarra that will be showing the rugby this weekend?
