Pool Three: Saracens; Glasgow; Lyon; Cardiff Blues.

Pool Four: Scarlets; Racing 92; TIGERS; Ulster.

Pool Five: Montpellier; Newcastle; Edinburgh; Toulon.
No easy games.
Saracens possibly the most fortunate.
Exeter could come unstuck again.
Home form and defence will need to be very strong with Scarlets and Racing 92.
The added bonus of seeing former Tigers meet in pool five.
Harsh saying Sarries are fortunate. They are the Champions of England and thus should get the weaker group.

Yes I do agree with your point but I meant possibly fortunate in the type of teams that they had drawn which may not challenge their pack for example as Clermont did last season, but we will see as someone else wrote somewhere it only takes a couple of injuries to turn it all upside down.

As Lawrence said to the fictitious Sherif Ali 'Nothing is written!" The Scarlets and R92 while showing good form last season are very beatable so I see no reason why the Tigers cannot top the pool?
Very profound of Dayglo but I doubt the American cop understood
