A nice Sunday afternoon game. I could be very interested in that, any news when tickets are released.

Hopefully Tigers players will be involved, week before the PRC semifinal, hope they don't exclude Tigers from it because of that...

As a rugby hipster who liked the Portugal team before they were cool, I'm so happy!

Dolly, Kelly, OHC, even Shilcock possibly

Heyes is definitely either in there or the main squad.

Given it’s a capture match, may even be some left field guys like Hurd who qualify for other nations in there.

Press release talks about more opportunities to bridge the U20s and the senior squad, so could see the likes of Chessum and Illione. Maybe Whitcombe?

Just got my tickets although a number of areas not yet released

[Rugbygramps]

There is a line on the club website saying it’s still waiting world rugby approval

Mmmmm. Heyes has to pull his socks up a little, there are a few other names being mentioned at the moment.
It depends on who replaces World Cup players in the 6 nations squad. I think it will be evolution rather than revolution

The key will be player release for the game also.

Think Portuguese players have an agreement with the French leagues to release players for 5 weekends.

Given they have 5 games in the Rugby Europe Championship, will their stars be there?

Depends how hard they go against Belgium and Poland, perhaps. It is likely to be a mixed side. Lots of good players who didn't get any limelight at the World Cup.

Had an email from the club telling me I can reserve my seat as a season ticket holder( and buy it) then general sale next Tuesday.

Ha, me too! I watched the Italy match on a stream where they should have won last summer.
