I ain't feeling too cocky. Then again I never do ahead of a must-win game.

Footage of the game below should be compulsory viewing for the team - think that was a Sunday lunchtime kick off as well.

I'm not overly confident of winning let alone BP territory - Castre still have a chance and all sorts of weird permutations happen in round 6 every year"There are a lot of points that we’ve left behind and this is with a young group. That probably tells you what they’re capable of and that they’re a very good side.
Probably next year or the year after next they will take some stopping"

Pique should be along to give you a proper assessment of the likely 8.
1. Leinster 24pts
2. Clermont 23pts
3. La Rochelle 21pts
4. Munster 21pts
5. Scarlets 21pts
6. Ulster 21pts
7. Racing 20pts
8. Toulon 19pts NB - The Nigels wont be happy.
So the QF's :-
1. Leinster v Toulon - Dublin
2. Clermont v Racing - Clermont
3. La Rochelle v Ulster - La Rochelle
4. Munster v Scarlets - TP
Semis :- Leinster v Munster - Dublin
Clermont V La Rochelle - France
Edited as per Piquet
Final - Clermont v Munster - Bilbao 12th May 2018
Champions 2018 - Munster.
There, now you have it.Last edited by The Yak; 15th-January-2018, 13:09.

I think we’ll win Sunday, but not sure about getting a bonus point.
When we’ve lost at home in the HEC/ERCC, we’ve just been outplayed/outsmarted by a better team on the day - Tigers (x2), Clermont, Ulster.
What worries me is that we might get ambushed like by Quins because we don’t treat Castres with enough respect.Last edited by blackwarrior; 15th-January-2018, 14:36."I don't believe in fairytales," O'Connell once told me, "even though it feels like I've been lucky enough to live through a few.

Even if you don't agree with the assumptions, there's a detailed attempt at projecting points by a Chiefs supporter here:

I think Tigers will put out their strongest team and give it a rip vs Racing in front of their own crowd.
Not at all convinced that Ulster will beat Wasps in Coventry.

And if we were tempted to move the game to Lansdowne, they've done it there as well."I don't believe in fairytales," O'Connell once told me, "even though it feels like I've been lucky enough to live through a few. However it ends, I'll feel lucky."
