TV3 have won the rights to exclusively screen the 2015 Rugby World Cup in Ireland.

The deal is expected to be confirmed by the IRB next week, with TV3 likely to sell some of the games to Setanta Sports, as it did with the tournament in 2007.

This comes after the station was beaten by Sky Sports to the rights for GAA Championship games in the summer.
