Agreed. Exeter can’t catch Leinster on PD realistically so it will be Leinster in the QF at MWWR (assuming we win our R16 and they beat Connacht)Darc Tiger wrote: ↑Sat Jan 22, 2022 9:26 pm Looks like its gonna be Clermont, Montpellier, Sale or Glasgow. More likely either French team.
QF looks almost certainly Leinster or Connacht.

Scarlets are also terrible though.OakhamTiger32 wrote: ↑Sat Jan 22, 2022 9:09 pm Just watched the Bristol Scarlets highlights.. Bristol look to be getting back to their best. 1st and 2nd tries were fantastic as was their final one. Impressive display
Genuinely poor side

As someone said earlier I’d sooner play them at MWWR in the QF than at a neutral venue in the Final.. have to play some of the best teams if we are going to win itwestwinds31 wrote: ↑Sat Jan 22, 2022 11:11 pmWe can take themDarc Tiger wrote: ↑Sat Jan 22, 2022 10:11 pmRugbygramps wrote: ↑Sat Jan 22, 2022 9:54 pm

Just watched highlights of the Glasgow La Rochelle game. Interesting to note that La Rochelle were down to 13 men in the final minutes thanks to this forums favourite official, otherwise the margin of victory would have been much greater.
Also one of the Rochelle centres seemed to have borrowed Inspector Gadgets arms for their first try
