Virgin Media Ireland have announced today that they have acquired the official Republic of Ireland rights to broadcast the Autumn Nations Series Rugby tournament in November for the very first time.
Coverage of these matches also include Ireland 'A' vs New Zealand in the RDS and Munster vs South Africa.

This could also mean for Ireland Rugby fans who are either in the UK or watch Channel 4's coverage in Ireland. It could mean that Channel 4 could also be losing these rights to Amazon Prime Video.
Is there any official chance for the Ireland rights for this tournament to be updated this year for Channel 4 again because the last set of rights for these rugby matches have only expired this year?
