La Rochelle win in Paris against Racing in the first barrage game.

Match was played at Racing’s old ground as their new arena was being prepared to host a music concert

...and La Rochelle play Stade Toulousain in next weekend’s semi-final in Bordeaux. Lyon are at home to Montpellier in today’s other play-off and the winner plays Clermont in the semis, also in Bordeaux.

Watching Chiefs get mauled by the Crusaders. O'Gara never played for us did he so would suit the anti ex-Tigers brigade. Wonder if he fancies a spell at Welford Road. Taufua on there bench.

I would have him in a heartbeat, the knowledge he must have picked up at Racing and Crusaders would be invaluable.

JP14 feels he’s over rated though, so will never happen :smt017
