Leinster would have put 4 trys on them easily. Clermont were beyond rubbish yet leave with a LBP. We just aren't clinical enough.

That's Clermont winning the group leaving us to try and scrape another away qf which we will obviously lose. Clermont were atrocious and we still managed to hand them a bonus point. If we are going to step it up and mix it with the big boys tonight should have been 5 points to ulster and nil to clermont. Leinster and Munster would have destroyed those chumps. Regardless of the weather the handling from us tonight was an absolutely farcical.

Have to agree with the last two posts.
Now hoping for Clermont to slip up at the Rec or Stoop, which is possible I suppose, but not likely.

A win is a win. I'm happy. Certainly we were not great but we looked better than last week. If we could only hold on to the ball.

Tonight was a reminder of the cynical gamesmanship that seens to be part of the culture of French rugby.
