The change continues in rugby TV rights in Ireland. With the Six Nations migrating to TV3 and the Champions Cup moving to BT Sport only -  with a few games popping up on TV3 -  it's now the turn of the Pro14 to swap broadcasters.

eir Sport today announced that they have secured the rights to broadcast every game for the next three years from the 2018/19 season.

All 152 games will be on eir Sport, meaning that each week will feature six live games along with a weekly highlights show.

Some games will remain free to air, however, with eir Sport confirming today that they will sub-licence some games to TG4.

"eir sport has entered into a sub-licencing agreement with TG4, allowing the Irish language broadcaster access to a select number of games". It would not appear, however, that those games given to TG4 will include any of the Munster/Leinster clashes, as eir confirmed that these games will be exclusively live on the eir Sport channels.
