IRFU hits back in free-to-air row
The IRFU has hit back in the furore regarding the effect of free-to-air television on the finances of the union.
"Following comments made to the Oireachtas Committee on Communications, Energy and Natural Resources earlier today, the IRFU reiterates its position...that a very real threat exists to the security and financing of the game at all levels if there is any change to the ability of the IRFU to negotiate on an unrestricted basis with broadcasters," the IRFU said in a statement.
