 Rugby Showdown Saturday: Wallabies, Warmth, and Winning Spirit!

After a tough Autumn Internationals round 1 loss to the All Blacks that kept us on the edge of our seats, we’re ready to bounce back this Saturday as we take on the Wallabies at 3:10 pm! Join us at the clubhouse to catch all the action live on every screen.

The bar opens at 1:00 pm with 50p off pints at halftime, and Saucy Flo’s will be serving up hot food from the hatch. And to keep things cozy, the wood burner will be on!

Plus, our Pilgrims, Deacons, and Zingari teams are all playing at home, so it’s a full day of rugby excitement at the MTG. Don’t miss it!
