The semi-final line ups are as follows:
London Irish v Toulouse - Twickenham Stadium, Twickenham - Capacity: 80,000
Saracens v Munster - Ricoh Arena, Coventry - Capacity: 32,000
Would have thought it would have been better for Saracens to play Munster at Twickenham. Ricoh will not hold all the fans!!!!

2 of the grand old teams of the tournament versus 2 of the teams that I don't think anyone, least of all their own supporters, would have thought would have made it this far. Well done to them both though.
My vote and belief would be for a Munster V Toulouse final.

Exactly what I thought - surely Munster/Sorries will produce many more fans than Tolououse/Irish?Tigerbeat wrote:

Donncha O'Callaghan and Bruce Reihana are the best players that ever lived. Don't even bother to argue with me.

I would say that the Welsh regions and Wales in general are just about where they are supposed to be at this moment in their development: 2 times in the quarter finals was a good result for them, they are all (with the exception of the Dragons) getting better (llanelli have had a dodgy season, but I still think they are moving in the right direction) and more competetive in all competitions.Snorbins wrote:What happened to the Welsh golden era?
The Spreys will be back next year and if they learn their lessons from the quarter final I wouldn't be surprised to see them go the next round (fixtures permitting).
From a completely neutral viewpoint, Munster v Toulouse would produce the most interesting final. Have they ever played each other in Europe? I'm struggling to remember an instance.
