So a home QF v Connacht/Cardiff Blues/Ospreys on weekend of May 3-5
It will be Connacht if they beat Cardiff tomorrow, otherwise will be decided in R21.

In fantasy world for a second........ I'd rather an away SF in Thomond than Scotstoun, hopefully Leinster can beat Glasgow tomorrow.
Munster on 17/18th coming off the back of a bruising Euro SF vs Sorries the week before seems slightly more appealing. We provided we win our QF will of had a weeks rest.

Euro semi finals are next weekend. So Munster will have a month before league semi.

You mean if Munster are in the Euro final in Newcastle the week before?

I sacked off most of a free work weekend away in the hope of this.
Booked on an early flight to Bologna on the Sunday so a Friday night game would be perfect!

Should be ok unless Glasgow finish 2nd and want the Friday slot as well!

Bloody Weegies.
It’s tricky getting back to Blighty on a Saturday night!

If its the Saturday game is it likely to be an afternoon or evening kick off?

The honourable member is correct. 3:15pm and 6:35pm.

2045 flights booked for under 15 quid each.
That’d just about cover a 1730 kick off as the airport should be pretty quiet on a Saturday night.

Sat afternoon / evening will do best. A playoff game needs a full days preparation, ie several hours on the bar.
