ERC QFs

[Freddie Benson]

well what's the general opinion?? (no erection of Freddie's poll oo err missus)

don't give a toss?
supporting Leinster and/or Munster?
want to see our favourite French team beat our 2nd favourite French team?

anyway, 4 home wins for me

[Ithryn]

Toulouse to win and thump Stade.

Biaritz to thump the hairsprays.

Munster to regain form and thump the Saints.

Leinster V Clermont could be a class, wish it was the final, so much talent in both teams, love watching Clermont play. But I of course want Leinster to win.

What are "ERC QFs"?

[Freddie Benson]

that would be European Rugby Cup Quarter Finals

[AndyB]

I predict home wins for Leinster, Biarritz and Toulouse.

Away win for Northampton.

Would prefer to see Munster win but there's going to one away win and I think it'll be in limerick.

[Rooster]

Leinster, Biarritz, Northampton and Toulouse, then Leister go on to win and all 4 Irish provinces in HEC next year so whether Ulster or Connacht is worst Irish side in Magners does not matter.

[mikerob]

Don't forget the ACC QFs... If Ulster had scored one more try away against Bath I think it would have been Ulster playing at Wasps but we may be in it from round 1 next year

Connacht Rugby v Bourgoin

Toulon v Scarlets

London Wasps v Gloucester Rugby

Newcastle Falcons v Cardiff Blues

Connacht has been on good form of late and Bourgoin is hovering above the relegation zone in the T14 so may not be that bothered about the ACC so the Westies as slight favourites, I think.

Home wins for Toulon and Wasps but Cardiff should be too good for Newcastle.

can you imagine how gutted the turnips would be if leinster were first irish side to defend the trophy?

[Ithryn]

Top 14 relegation has been sorted already.

Albi will go down and Montaubano down as punishment for financial irregularities .

[Shan]

Really tough games for both Leinster and Munster for slightly different reasons.

Leinster are playing against what is possibly the best team in Europe on their day who showed against Munster at Thomond Park that they have what it takes to go away and win, although they lost of course but that was a miracle really.

Munster are not in good form and have stuttered through the season with really only the away performance against Perpignan lighting up a slightly dreary season.If Saints come to play this time instead of just turning up to be beaten they have a great chance but of course I'd never write off Munster especially now that they are being written off, if that makes any sense.


Biarritz and Toulouse will win comfortably in my opinion.

Just hoping for wins for the two Irish teams but I'm not particularly confident.Tonight's game could be a cracker to set off a great weekend of rugby.

That would be tough but I'd still be supporting them if they were in the final and we were not.

Has it really been that long Grumps?

I didn't think it was certain yet. Montauban can still appeal or come up with the money and Bourgoin is being investigated for similar financial issues. If the authorities relegate both Montauban and Bourgoin for their finances then Albi may escape despite finishing bottom.
