It has according to the bulls forum, and it is 5pm, apparently it's OK for rail travellers if the don't want to watch the saints/wigan game afterwards.

Cutting it a bit fine. The last train to Wakey is at 7.00pm and you have to get from Murrayfield to the station. I wouldn't want to risk it!

I think the kick off times are poor. It compromises a lot of those travelling up on the day by train, and also those wanting to watch all the games.

It is also a bit of a late finish for those like me who are staying up for the weekend, i was hoping for the job lot to be done by 6-30ish so that we could go out.

You'd probably be better flying back as the train tickets seem sky high!

5:00pm kick off? Ah well, there's worse places to be stuck at for a Saturday night and there shouldn't be a problem finding anywhere to eat in a place of Edinburgh's size.

£29.00 return but last train is 7.00pm so not do-able in the day.

cheap is that but poor time, the rfl should take note, they could still change the times if enough traveling supporters made the effort to complain
