The BT Premiership final looks set to be played on Saturday, April 25, it has been announced.
The final league matches affecting the top four places - between Melrose and Ayr and Currie and Glasgow Hawks - now take place on Saturday, March 28.
It means that the play-off semi-finals will now be on April 4.
In those semis, top placed Heriot's are assured of a home match against either Gala or Currie while Melrose and Ayr will meet, the latter's venue to be decided depending on final league placings.
With the Melrose Sevens on April 11 and the BT Cup final on April 18, the BT Premiership final will then be on April 25.
Should Heriot's reach the final it would mean their 125th anniversary match with the Barbarians would be played just days before on April 21.
Meanwhile, the promotion/relegation play-off match looks set to be played on April 25 too.
It will not be known until April 4 who has finished in ninth place in the top flight and in second place in BT National League One.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
