but 8 tries would be a hell of a lot more fun :wink:
I don't know, nothing beats a 3-0 with a great forward battle and a few against the head. :)

To be pedantic - it does! But, I was only referring to the 'fun' element.

OK. A 3-0 win carries no bonus points for the winner. :oops:

Agree I'd rather see a tight game that a romp - but in HEC rugby there'd be a lot more fun involved in finally progressing beyond the group stage again. :D

HEC winners, CL champions and a whitewash of all the Irish provinces.

How do you see Munsters season turning out Skyhawk?

Bonus points are essential you can win 5 games and be beaten by a team that has only won 4 or at a real outside chance a team that has won 3 :? I reckon you need 22 points minimum to be sure of qualification :shock:

Firstly, I would have to agree with ding dong 2u, Treviso are certainly not a push over at home and they always obtain a victory or two in the HC!! I think that Ulster stand a very reasonable chance of reaching the QF this year as you will probably win your three home games and win at least one away game and I reckon that away victory could be against Sarries!!!.

browner, we have a very tough group this year in the HC, however I do believe that we will qualify for the QF stage. At this early stage it is unrealistic to predict whether or not we will go further than the QF stage.

I would expect us to finish in the top three of the CL. I think that the Welsh teams are going to be a force in both the CL & HC this year.

We have not won many games away from home .... but maybe the Justin twins and this new tease rumour signing will help give a harder edge and maybe a bit more emotion away and at home.
