When do we play Tigers?
Volunteer at an animal sanctuary; it will fill you with joy , despair, but most of all love, unconditional love of the animals.

Semi final at earliest.
I reckon tigers will beat Leinster in the QF.

Home venue rather than home country advantage at semi final stage this year!Semi-finals
2.8 The semi-finals will be played over one match, and the highest-ranked clubs from the pool stage will have home venue advantage as follows

Depends whether they revert to pre COVID rules of minimum ground capacity or keep the COVID system and let clubs continue to have proper home semi finals etc.UlsterNo9 wrote: ↑Mon Apr 11, 2022 10:16 pm https://www.epcrugby.com/champions-cup/format/rules/

If we were lucky enough to make it that far I’m pretty certain the IRFU would demand it be in the Aviva.
Re: Heineken Cup 2021/22
With a 50/50 ticket split v Leinster probably. Would be travelling to Leicester, they won their pool.HammerTime wrote: ↑Tue Apr 12, 2022 10:30 am If we were lucky enough to make it that far I’m pretty certain the IRFU would demand it be in the Aviva.
Re: Heineken Cup 2021/22
They might, however the flip side is that there is only a week between quarter final and semi final, that doesn't give a lot of time to organise a 50,000 plus event (staff, catering, Gardai etc) and to also fill Lansdowne Road.HammerTime wrote: ↑Tue Apr 12, 2022 10:30 am If we were lucky enough to make it that far I’m pretty certain the IRFU would demand it be in the Aviva.
We should dig our heels in hard to keep it at Ravenhill if we get to that point.

Leicester won Pool B, Ulster 2nd in Pool A. Higher seed gets the home venue advantage.

You'd think actually winning more games would count for something!Neill_M wrote: ↑Tue Apr 12, 2022 1:24 pmLeicester won Pool B, Ulster 2nd in Pool A. Higher seed gets the home venue advantage.
