Potts also disagreed with suggestions that Ireland's home games have begun to draw more of a corporate crowd. "Many, many people I know have been here for years supporting rugby and there are rugby people around the stadium.
There are corporates here for sure, and we need them and we're very appreciative of their support, but everybody who pays a price to come into that stadium is here to follow our national team. And calling it a corporate day out, I think, is disingenuous to all of them." Potts also maintained that supporters are still travelling to Dublin from all around Ireland in the same numbers as in the past. "Our ticket distribution across Ireland has not changed since we opened the Aviva Stadium back in 2010. The same numbers of tickets are going through the same provinces and to the same clubs." The IRFU has not yet revealed the ticket pricing for Ireland's home games in next year's Six Nations against Italy , Wales and Scotland .
