Anyone know when rounds 5 / 6 are confirmed. Not too please that the paris trip is a friday as hoping to go to that one without taking a day off work.

I think it said 5/6 would be confirmed at the end of R4 so would be sometime around the 19th December.

thats a shame as booking a Dublin hotel and a pikey RyanAir flight at that short notice could be pricey for the Leinster game. Will seriously consider booking a mini trip now to ensure i don't book the weekend, to find out the game will be on Friday.
