Re: EUROPEAN SEMI FINALS
full bore is a must vs Ulster
Re: EUROPEAN SEMI FINALS
If the Rainbow Cup is cancelled Ulster won't have played for 3 weeks, not sure if that will be help or hinderance

Please not a Friday Night Game
Re: EUROPEAN SEMI FINALS
Toughest draw we could have but home advantage could be big
Re: EUROPEAN SEMI FINALS
Don’t forget ,Ulster wouldn’t have wanted us away either!

Re: EUROPEAN SEMI FINALS
Champions' Cup semis to be played on May1/2:
Leinster v La Rochelle
Toulouse v Bordeaux
Luck of the Irish to be drawn at home. If it'd been the other way round I'd have fancied La Rochelle's chances. However, they're a very good team and have an outside chance.
Toulouse v Bordeaux will see the two outstanding fly halves in European rugby going head to head. Home advantage should see Toulouse through, but it's a semifinal and anything could happen!

Re: EUROPEAN SEMI FINALS
Yep agreed. Would rather play them at WR in the Semi then face bath in the final though than play Ulster in the final.. at least we get them out the way playing at home. We have won 9/11 at home this season.. starting to rebuild the fortress!

Re: EUROPEAN SEMI FINALS
We have a huge 3 weeks now. Prem games against Bath and Saints then Euro SF. Will be a good indicator of how far we’ve come
