Doesn’t look like Big Tomas penalty count has improved since his time at Clermont

Ulster up 34-17 they look a very good side particularly when you consider they have the likes of Henderson, Clooney and Stockdale to return. No one is going to fancy them home and away

Incredible comeback from 34-12 5o 34-31 but just too little too late. So as it stands in Pool A:

1.Racing 19 points
2. Ulster 19 points
3. Leinster 15 points
4. La Rochelle 11 points (3 played)
5. Exeter 10 points (3 played)
6. Clermont 8 points
7. Sale 7 points (3 played)
8. Glasgow 5 points (3 played)
(9.) Montpellier 5 points (3 played)

Matches to come:

Glasgow vs La Rochelle which should be a cracker. Last time it was 20-13 to La Rochelle but now Glasgow are at home.
Sale vs Ospreys
Montpellier vs Exeter

We will play whoever finishes 8th so will be either Montpellier, Glasgow, Sale or Clermont.

Glasgow win tonight would mean it won't be them. Sale will beat Ospreys so unlikely to be them. Exeter should beat Montpellier.

My money is on Clermont unless Glasgow lose tonight in which case it's likely to be them.

Clermont not the side they once were but if they have their strongest squad available it would be a tough ask home and away
