Six Nations Rugby, England v Italy- FREE!

If £65 seems a lot to spend to support your team why not go and see the women play. ITS FREE! Kick off is a 16.15 and entry into Twickenham is free for the game.

I have seen a lot of women's rugby over the last few years and the standard is very high, if you like rugby you will not be disappointed. It is worth noting that the players work just as hard as the men but they do not get paid huge amounts of money like the men do. They are in it just for the honor of playing for their country so the least you could do is go and support them!

If you have a ticket for the mens game stick around afterward and watch the women as well, just think of all that extra drinking time!

    I would've liked to see this, but living 'oop north makes it difficult.

  • Just to add you can also watch the game for free on BBC TV. Go to BBCi by pressing the red button on your sky/cable/freeview box and you can watch the game live, and it is still FREE! Come on, you know it makes sense.

  • U would need to pay me to watch ingoland

    Presumably on account of the fact that they beat Scotland so often.
  • Perhaps the Scots might want to try using their women's team instead next time - they'd probably do better? :D:D:D

    Mmmn, something somewhere tells me that we might get a lot of contributions on this thread from dobbiesloan now? (mind you db, you have had that same sig running for the best part of a year now haven't you? ;) )

    Thanks for this.... my Three 'boys' are on their way back home now after watching the womens rugby. They saw the England mens team leave and are delighted to have seen some famous players.
    Thanks again I've got 3 happy boys and 2 hours breathing space !! :D
