Would love to be able to compete but much like the other English clubs, it just looks like we aren’t geared up to compete

When you consider the Irish teams have the ability to rest players and bring the big names out for Europe and let alone their wages bill etc, then the French etc etc, I’m not sure the Champions cup is a level playing field >fiddle and as others have said we are just being cannon fodder at the moment

I’m pleased we are out this year and just hoping we can now focus on the premiership for this season.

whilst broadly accurate, this article does fail to mention the extra effect on the reported phenomenon that English rugby fans can have....http://waterfordwhispersnews.com/2017/1 ... -millenia/

Watson outstanding. Bath with a good lead now at half time.

Watson has serious gas but Toulon's back line should be sponsored by Andrew's Liver Salts as they are the opposite of gas.

Bath are playing very well indeed. Rugby too, not thuggery.

So if LR beat wasps and deny them a bonus point, it effectively means Ulster know a home win against LR will secure second in the group. From looking at the tables one more win could secure a QF place. A tigers win tomorrow would help Ulsters cause, although this will undoubtedly cause some discomfort in many quarters, me included.

I reckon 18-20 gets a QF spot for runners up. If Coventry lose Sun, they are gone.

Reckon La Rochelle, Clermont, D4 and Turnips will have home QF
