Would suggest that the Roof is unlikely EVER to be closed again in the Six Nations! Shame....IMO

Why zat?

Wales want it shut, Ireland open ....... Roofgate.

Wales always want the roof closed because it improves the atmosphere for them .. that's why most visiting teams want it left open just to irritate them .

in Nov 2014 When Australia did want it shut , they decided it was better left open so they could play in the wind and rain and prepare for the 2015 World Cup in NZ .

Wales have requested a closed roof direct to 6N Committee which overrules the usual protocol

In respect to St Patrick's Day and my love of Guinness , I think Ill support Ireland this weekend .

We invented Rugby as a game to be played in the open air.

If you want a game that is played in a cupboard, then invent your own game.

Go and watch skittles or darts if you want indoor sport

I never get the roof closed thing. Rugby as others have said is an outdoor winter sport. It is meant to be played in the wind and the rain. The Welsh are just being silly about it. I'm definitely hoping Ireland win, supporting would be a bit too far......
