Sky and RTÉ turn down live coverage of Munster in Castres

MUNSTER’s Heineken Cup game against Castres next month will not be televised live.

Declan Kidney’s side are away to the French outfit on Friday, January 13th at 8.30pm (7.30pm Irish) but event organisers confirmed yesterday that the Pool One Round Five clash will not be covered by Sky Sports or RTÉ. Ulster’s Pool Four game against Biarritz on the same evening in Ravenhill is expected to be on Sky Sports. RTÉ will have coverage of Leinster’s Pool Five game against Glasgow Warriors on Saturday, January 14th at 5.15pm.

Meanwhile, Jonah Lomu may not have scored in last week’s Heineken Cup win over Calvisano, but that has not stopped him pulling in the crowds for Saturday’s return.
