Referees to 26 February
Six Nations breaks out again this week with lots of focus on Croke Park where England come to play Ireland - a venue associated in the past with Irish nationalism.
Ireland will be smarting at their defeat at the hands of the French, England at the criticism that followed their moderate performance against the determined Italians.
There are other internationals on the go at this time and, of course, the Super 14 rackets on.
