Women’s Six Nations Campaign

Sir, – I agree wholeheartedly with the excellent letter by Ann McCourt (Letters, February 17th). But not only shame on the IRFU but also on RTÉ which receives its licence fee from the public - half of whom are women.

We need two things for the hugely impressive Irish women’s rugby team:decent live TV coverage not dismal internet streaming; and to move the matches to a city location such as the RDS or Donnybrook Wesley for a full-house capacity with the attendant atmosphere.

These athletes deserve the highest respect and are crucial role models for young girls. – Yours, etc, MARIA WALSH Sandyford, Dublin 18.
