THAT proved some weekend of rugby action. Within the space of 24 hours, a distance of 1408 kilometers, and a combined audience of over 108,000 people, it was a privilege to attend two unique rugby occasions.
One carried huge significance in terms of the destiny of the 2024 Six Nations championship, the other nothing quite as important, but significant in its own way.
