Mathematically only need 3 points to secure an away QF. Win in Clermont gives us a real shot at home QF v R92 probably (they still have to travel to Saracens in R6).

As others say send the 2s to D4 and go strong v Connacht and Munster.

What needs to happen to get Saracens @ Ravenhill?

If they won their group (unlikely) they'd be 5th seeds. If Ulster won theirs they would probably be 4th seeds. I think that's the only scenario?

Saracens at best will be 7th seed, so Ulster would have to be 2nd seed. Highly unlikely.

I don't believe they would.

Remove Billy Vunipola from Saracens and their win record plummets alarmingly

Our annual pasting at the RDS.

It is a great pity that this fixture always seems to fall when we've to send a half baked team. Can't remember the last time we sent a strong team to Dublin? Was it 2013 when we beat them?

Tired of losing to the mexicans.

Quarter-final last March? Before that the league semi-final in 2016?
