Challenge Cup technically but worth a post. Stade player getting a long rest for grabbing meat and 2 veg of Benetton player tonight. Benetton won 44-20 in Paris, home side sent out the 4th XV.

Big win for Clermont at Bristol in Ulster's pool. 51-38, couple of late tries for Bristol to make score look slightly better, but they were well beaten.

Toulouse Exeter and Glasgow Lyon cancelled for weekend. COVID outbreak in Chiefs' camp and Glasgow it seems don't have enough props as they are self isolating.

Pro 14 voided COVID impacted games 0-0, whereas the Autumn Nations Cup handed out 20-0 default wins. EPCR in past has handed out default wins when sides have been unable to fulfill the fixture on that given weekend. Stade were handed such a win in the Parker Pen v Romanian team as there was crazy snow in Romania that weekend etc.

Location: second barrier up, at the half-way line ... or is the third?

Stade player only got a two week ban for trying to re-insert Benetton player's gonads back into his abdomen. :shock:

Benetton player got one week for his (quite understandable) reaction. :roll:

And I must confess , I stole the word from a NI court of appeal judge when he was increasing a territorist's attempted murder sentence from 20 to 25 years!

If Tigers select strong sides, there's every chance.

Hardly stealing ... many judges appear to have stopped using it.
