Still in the hunt yes but on that showing leinster will absolutely demolish that side if they play similarly. The gaps that were available to Edinburgh were shocking, who are 14th in the urc despite their international roster. Appreciate the tribulations the club are going through, but they are far from the standard needed to win anything.
Didn't say we would win anything, still climbing out of a hole, but we have key players in key places who give us a punchers chance.

Bad day for the Irish (apart from the Leirish of course).

Yes South Africa champions of Europe, sounds as good as Australia winning the Eurovision Song Contest.

I reckon the odds on Ringpiece getting MOTM will be pretty short.

If Scarlets can get to the semi finals, at least, what could we do in this competition. Could we volunteer to go into it, rather than the Heiny next year? :D

Benetton at minus 5 in the handicap.

It’s not 12 months since Cardiff went there and shipped 69 points.
