    I'm not sure if this should be in the Rugby forum or the Oz / New Zealand forum so mods please feel free to move.

    I've just recently moved to Melbourne but found myself getting increasingly out of touch with rugby especially given the hours that it is on. So can anbody recommend a bar / pub in Melbourne that shows all the Leinster and Ireland games? I would love to catch the Leinster v Bath game this weekend. Also, do you know any links to watch it online? The internet is pretty expensive here so I would probably prefer to watch it in a bar.

    The Celtic Club (sh1thole)
    Turf Bar

    Melbourne doesn't give a flying f*ck about rugby though. Most Victorians don't know the difference between League and Union, and some have referred to it as "bum sniffing". Typical AFL fan behaviour!

    I was there for a year and a half and the casino is your best bet. The bar has about 10 tellies showing different sports and it's open 24 hours. Even at that, it can be a bit hit and miss.
