    Highly unlikely they will go on general sale.

    I was just checking the IRFU site for Ireland fixtures.


    The calendar goes from June (3 v Australia) the the 6 Nations in 2019, no mention of the autumn internationals at all :confused:

    Why not? It'll allow for more people tp get to see it, and maybe take down the high price of the tickets, whats the problem with croker?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,203 ✭✭✭bren2002


    Contractual arrangements with sponsors for starters, Ireland have to play Test matches in Aviva stadium.

    It wont. Aviva sponsorship means all tests have to be there. IRFU would be paying rent which would affect prices and IRFU makes more from Aviva games which means more reinvested back into the sport across the country

    Last Ireland home game outside Dublin was 2008 if I recall, Canada in Thomond Park.

    Get onto a friend that's a member of a rugby club is your best bet. They might be able to help you. But no guarantees. I've had 5 or 6 people ask me at this stage no way can I help them all.


  • Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 11,850 Mod ✭✭✭✭icdg


    Last Ireland home game outside Dublin was 2008 if I recall, Canada in Thomond Park.

    There was Ireland XV v Fiji in Thomond Park in 2012. Ireland didn’t award caps (so as to keep to the word of the Aviva deal) but I think Fiji did. 53-0 iirc. Don’t think there’s been a similar match since.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,707 ✭✭✭arsebiscuits1


    Ireland played the Baabaas in Thomond more recently also. Uncapped fixture with a threabare team. Collie O'Shea started 13.

    As for getting tickets for this... You'd better start your prayers now.

    Ten year ticket holders will all take theirs. Then most will go out to clubs. Of which none will get returned.

    A smaller allocation will go to the Supporters Club but that is normally a bit of a lotto for the massive games.

    I don't think there will be any on general sale for this. Which I actually love... means ticketmaster wont be getting anything ha

    the recent ticket sale through Munster was via ticketmaster

    pretty sure they are Leinster's ticket partner also

    What presale is happening on Wednesday, is it just the presale for members of the IRFU supporters club? I know 3 have presales for events in the 3Arena for example, do sponsors also have presale access from Wednesday for these games in the Aviva? The likes of Vodafone or Aviva etc.? Anyone familiar with this? Thanks.

    Got 3 tickets for Ire/Arg.

    Tickets for the NZ game seem to have sold out almost immediately.

    The ticket price increase seems to have worked then.

    Here are the codes I didn't use.

    Your password to purchase tickets for Ireland v Argentina: AR4FWVK4
    Your password to purchase tickets for Ireland v USA: US8FTYWG

    Sorry about the NZ one, but I used that myself. Got two fairly ****ty tickets, but I am absolutely not complaining.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,518 ✭✭✭✭dudara


    I was online before the pre-sale started, plugged in my NZ unlock code at 10am sharp, and nothing. No tickets at all. Very disappointed with this, would have expected to get some form of sh*tty ticket at least.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 38,880 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    got 2 in Block 140

    €211.90 for 2 but happy too have them. Could be an unreal game if both teams play to there potential

    Why is the game on so late ??? 7pm kick off

    Noticed there playing England the week before us, maybe they might break a few of them up for us


  • Registered Users Posts: 179 ✭✭Goldigga


    Went for the 3 game package hoping that it might be easier.. After fumbling with the options for a few seconds, i got them. 527 Row C... Very happy with that!

    Same thing happened to me with all three home Six Nations games this year. Even with Supporters Club membership, it seems to be a massive gamble.For now, it seems the rugby gods have smiled upon me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,276 ✭✭✭banchang


    Supporters Club presale is an absolute joke. How many tickets did they put out for NZ game ?

    Complete waste of money.

    I agree, did not get a single Six Nations ticket, but got 2 x tickets to all 3 matched today...

    I disagree, I got 2 All Blacks tickets, very happy. Got to see Ireland England last year too via supporters club.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,753 ✭✭✭CZ 453


    Went directly into the 3 match pack section. Nothing.
    After a while went back out to main menu where I could enter my code and got block 510.
    Bit of a nightmare in terms of entering the code. I'd say I was one of the first on this morning yet couldn't enter the code in the specific match pack.I'd imagine plenty of others had this too.

    I have tickets for block 503 row H. Just realized on receipt it says Restricted View, just wondering if anyone knows how restricted they are ???? I've had seats similar to this on other side of pitch and there wasn't a problem with those .....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,188 ✭✭✭✭Clegg


    The argument about the worth of the supporters club comes up from time to time and I always fall on the side in favour of it. They don't promise tickets for any game but rather the access to them if they become available. I got to see 2 home 6N games this year which I wouldn't have been able to if I weren't a member of the supporters club.

    I'm disappointed I couldn't get tickets for the NZ game but thems the breaks. Demand is huge for this fixture and always has been. I also got to see them at Lansdowne in 2016. Also from tickets bought through the supporters club.

    Not at all. It's the best money I spend in the year. I got AB tickets and Wales tickets this year.

    I got the three home matches for the 6 Nations this year, but purchased the tickets via a work connection we have. Didn't use the Supporter's Club for those

    I know these were in very high demand but, as someone who goes annually to the 6 Nations and Autumn series, plus several Leinster or Munster matches per year, I still feel disappointed.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 614 ✭✭✭random_banter


    Would you say there is far more demand this year for AB's tickets due to the season that's in it?

    Have never had a problem securing tickets for the autumn internationals before, when they went on general sale (granted, I generally buy the 3 game package). Doesn't look like that will be happening this year!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,736 ✭✭✭pawrick


    Missed the NZ tickets as the seats i was offered were too low on the north stand which i dont like for watching the game. Picked up tickets to the USA game though and at least I'll be able to bring a few more mates with me to it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,153 ✭✭✭PMC83


    Supporters club has always been a lottery and in fairness they are pretty open about that. I've always been lucky with them having seen the Abs as well as England on their last two visits.


    I think a lot of people try and choose specific price categories when picking, which can trip you up, usually I bite the bullet and click 'best available' as it pushes the whole thing through more quickly. But this can yield expensive results!


    50 quid though is a bit of a rip-off, this year I didn't even get a scarf off them!

    I'm sure you'll have no problem getting Argentina or USA tickets.

    Where does it mention that you're guaranteed a ticket?

    No one forced you to buy membership

    Definitely I reckon.

    Leinster and Ireland have made the Aviva a very good place to go this year.

    But I feel tickets were in as high a demand as they were in 2016
