    The home games were on RTE last year, I think. Well the English one was scheduled to be shown anyway, before they decided it was too cold!

    The game in Bath will be broadcast by Sky Sports.
    The game in Ravenhill will be shown on BBC Northern Ireland by red-button access.

    According to Ulster rugby programme I purchased last Friday at Ravenhill this match is advertised as Irish Wolfhounds vs Scotland 'A'. Is this the new name for the Irish 'A' team?

    Yes, they leaked it by mistake before the announcements. Stupid exercise I think. Nothing wrong with Ireland A.

    Isn't the Wolfhounds the name of an Irish national team in another sport?

    I think it's our generic nickname for sports teams.
