We reviewed "Six Nations, Two Stories" by Kate Rowan & Peter O'Reilly for you a few weeks ago, now you have a chance to read it for yourself courtesy of O'Brien Press in our latest "unriggable raffle" competition.

Click here to read what we had to say, and here is how OBP describe it in their own words...
2015: A Golden Year for Irish Rugby. Both the Irish men’s and women’s teams became Six Nations champions in competitions filled with drama, passion and grit. Here is a match-by-match breakdown of both tournaments, following the journeys of each team – and their similarities and differences – which ultimately led to victory.

As always, to qualify for the competition you will have to stay tuned to the HarpinOnRugby Facebook page throughout the coming week and follow the instructions when the posts are published.  Below you will see a grid showing the days, times and number of qualifiers for each post.

The rugby match which will provide the winning square for this competition is Ireland’s Rugby World Cup clash with France on Sunday, October 11, 2015.

The following extra rules are unfortunate but necessary.



  • the winner must provide an address on the island of Ireland




  • the competition winner will only be contacted via the social media account they used to qualify




  • only one entry per separate Facebook account is allowed each day, but it’s ok to enter once on each of the four days




  • each window closes 3 hours after posting – if all of the spots are not all taken, the extra ones will be allocated in a manner to be determined by the competition organisers.



  • when you are asked to leave an “exact phrase” this means you can use the phrase with OR without the quotes; also, since speed is a factor in the competition we will make allowances for typos once it is clear a decent attempt has been made to repeat the phrase




  • for some windows “edited” Facebook comments will not be permitted as entries…this will be outlined as part of the post where it applies



  • for transparency purposes your qualifying comment must remain on the social media post until at least two hours of completion of the rugby match that is to determine the competition winner.




  • be aware that Facebook have been known to display comments in a random order on the web; as competition organisers we will do all we can to ensure the timeline is properly followed in each window.




  • entrants’ positions on the grid are set and not open for discussion, nor are any other final decisions made by the competition organisers.


    If you have any questions about the competition and/or its format or would like to sponsor one down the line, feel free to email we'd be happy to help.

    BE SURE AND HAVE A GO AND BEST OF LUCK!!! JLP
