There is no Pro 12 this weekend so some players are set to enjoy the opening few days of the Rugby World Cup.
For some it might be a case of watching the games at home, while for others like this duo from Leinster, they look set to take in the early action in Portugal.
Ben Te’o and Noel Reid have been spotted on Instagram with former England international Danny Cipriani enjoying life in a Lisbon pub.
The Instagram snap was taken down from Te’o’s account, probably after people complained about the wad of cash the lads were flashing about the place.
