Calculate the quarter finals !

Ok fine - you can cancel the matches next Sunday then, they are superfluous now.

But can you agree who the opposition is so they can plan the travel etc?

Thanks very much.
I even read that page- how did I miss that?!

I had us finishing on 22 points with 23 tries but it showed us ranked 7th.

6th and 5th only had 21 points and us scoring more tries than anyone else.

So how does that work that we would be ranked 7th?

Pool winners are ranked above runners up.

How can Scarlets beat Perpignan and Tigers not still top the pool?

If Scarlets get a result this leaves no chance of a Leinster v Leicester QF!

Using the calculator I've predicted

Perpiginan TBP win v Scarlets
Tigers TBP win v Treviso

Also Saints have to now lose at Castres otherwise Saints are second and Franklins Gardens here we come!

So...

Castres win v Saints (18-17 a close one 2 tries each)
Ulster beat Aironi away

Leinster beat Racing Metro away to be second placed.

QF Table
1 Toulouse 25 Points 17 Tries
2 Leinster 23 Points 18 Tries
3 Perpignan 22 Points 22 Tries
4 Northampton 22 Points 15 Tries
5 Biarritz 21 Points 15 Tries
6 Toulon 21 Points 11 Tries
7 Leicester 22 Points 22 Tries
8 Ulster 21 Points 11 Tries

QF Ties
Match 1 Toulouse v Ulster (Toulouse)
Match 2 Leinster v Leicester (Leicester)
Match 3 Perpigan v Toulon (Perpignan)
Match 4 Saints v Biarritz (Saints)

With a favourable draw it could be a Leicester v Saints final in both the Heineken Cup AND Aviva Premiership final.
