The SportsJOE Friday Pub Quiz is here to get that sporting brain whirring ahead of another big weekend.
Ireland are Grand Slam champions, on the double, the Allianz Leagues are getting to the nitty gritty with the finals in sight and we’re in the thick of international football, with France coming to Dublin to take on Stephen Kenny’s side.

We cover a wide range of topics, sports and events in this weekly quiz and, not wishing to toot our horn too much, it is pretty difficult.
If you get anything between 12 and 15, you have done a decent job of it. 16 and over, though, gets our full-on respect.
Try your luck, hold your nerve, and let us know how you get on.
The very best of luck!
