So cynical, but probably true :smt005
To win is not as important as playing with style!

Hopefully Montpellier away to Ulster and then we get to do the double over Bath in the league and cup in the coming weeks. :smt040

In the two all French semis (Champions Cup) there were 78 points scored in total and not a single try (25 pens &1 DG). Pretty remarkable statistic, I reckon, and it could be interesting to read the stories behind it.

Home game is always a big plus.

But Ulster will be the biggest challenge in Europe we have had.

I just knew we would get Ulster but they are the next best side in the Cup so better to face them at home in the Semi rather than away or in the final. I’ll take that as both Bath and Montpellier in the final are beatable imho
