Leinster move quickly to assure fans about Munster match

It has become a fixture of the Irish rugby season - Leinster and Munster going head-to-head at the Aviva Stadium.

There were wails across the nation, just after midday today, when the Guinness PRO12 fixtures were released and Leinster vs. Munster was set for the RDS. https://twitter.com/SportsJOEdotie/status/753202139544059904 The fixture has been a sell-out affair in recent years and even came close to being full, last November, after many had Irish rugby up to the gills amid World Cup blues. Leinster would factor in the visit of Munster a huge source of revenue, especially now that the Champions Cup knock-out stages and home league semi-finals are no longer a guarantee. Fans of both provinces took to Twitter to query as to why Leinster would take on Munster at an RDS arena that has less than have the capacity of the Aviva Stadium. Fear not, however, as Leinster moved quickly to assure fans there would indeed by an inter-pro match in D4. https://twitter.com/leinsterrugby/status/753203660318990337 So mark Saturday, October 8 in your diary and get ready to see the best of the best.
