Looking forward to seeing Obano again.

I thought he played very well last time.

Or it could have been the cider.

Certainly not a full B team from Bath, somewhat surprised and pleased at that. Has to be a win for Ulster, and a good one at that.

Any slim chance of Quins causing an upset against Clermont can be forgotten based on the team Quinns have put out with Brett Heron starting at 10 with young inexperienced centres.

Went to the Bath site - Comeonmylovers.co.uk to see there take on the game but they are more interested in the Sarries debacle. They are in incensed.

To-days' game could be a banana skin -- with Bath feeling at home on a dead water logged pitch. The away game was tight so in my book it's not the foregone conclusion that seems to prevail in the minds of some. Yes Bath may be resting some but those who are on the team may have something to prove which makes for a potential Banana skin. The team core doesn't look that weak ( the core being 3/4 and back-row)

Clermont match on TV, can't imagine it will be good viewing for the English if a Harlequins 2nd team gets stuffed.

Have no doubt McFarland will have the squad read for this, is basically a knock out game at home so no reason for complacency. Will show the leadership in a young team.
