Glad I checked the thread. I thought it might have been something to do with the 3rd place playoff and IDRC stood for I Don't Really Care....

Been following this (obviously) and it seems like it has been a good competition. Bit disappointed I didn't get to watch any of it at RAF Halton.

Good to see teams with military players involved (Ospreys, Bath, London Welsh and others) getting behind it too and allowing their players to participate.
