Congrats to Leinster, however I still think that teams who fail to make it to the Heineken quarters shouldn't join the Challenge Cup.

The Argentinian Sevens will be added to the calendar in 2014. However I'd like to see a Sevens Tournament in Spain or Portugal as well. Possibly instead of the Scotland Sevens.

I was thinking exactly the same yesterday. I'd like to see the Scotland Sevens replaced by a European Sevens which can be hosted in a different country each year. Spain, Portugal, France, Italy,...

I know that the NFL is backing this competition but isn't playing in NFL stadiums a bit too much? Why not play in the so called soccer specific stadiums?

London Irish will take on a "New England Irish-themed US XV" or US Barbarians as the Guardian calls it in their articles on August 10, 2013 at the Gillette Stadium.

Maybe the Barbarians can call...

13-27 with 6 minutes to go. Huge upset at Allianz Park in the making.

Nope, Farrell just missed a fairly easy penalty right before half time. 0-17 at half time, nice match to watch so far!

Spain and Scotland will stay in the core group after winning the qualifier tournament. Russia and Portugal will face each other in a play-off after losing their semi-final matches. The winner will be...

The USA is getting better and better. I think by Rio 2016 they will be a gold medal contestant. They defeated France and South Africa today and only lost to Australia because of a stupid mistake...

I also find it strange that the 2015 edition of this tournament will be hosted in Italy while they might not even be back in the top division by then. I'd like to see this tournament hosted in...

Last year's tournament was fantastic. Many wonderful moments: Wales defeating New Zealand in the pool stage, Ireland defeating South Africa in their first match, Argentina topping pool C by defeating...

Jonathan Davies felt the need to open his piehole after all is decided, said and done...

In round 1 of the European Repechage Qualifying Tournament, Luxembourg defeated Slovenia 22 - 10, eliminating them from qualification. This is somewhat surprising as Slovenia plays one division...

The football ground issue will also be a problem when Italy wants to host a World Cup.

Uhm, he finished third at a rugby world cup. How many Irish or Scottish can say that?

Anyway, I really wanted to visit Liverpool and Manchester as one can get cheap easyJet flights from Amsterdam to those places, but since 0 matches are being played at Anfield and only 1 in Manchester...

I really don't get the inclusion of the smaller stadiums like Kingsholm and Sandy Park and the matches scheduled at these venues.

- Argentina vs. (probably) Georgia in Kingsholm? Seriously? That...

I thought they said they were gonna fix the schedule for tier 2 and 3 countries? Yet what do we get for pool rounds 3 and 4?

Play-off winner: matches on October 6 and October 10
Americas 2:...

I hope the final will be as close and exciting as the Top 14 match between Toulon and Clermont from a couple of weeks back.

Well at least we'll have a first-time Heineken Cup winner this year.

This will be Clermont's, especially after their semi-final defeat to Leinster last year.

Oh and go Toulon!

Well done ERC for screwing up what could have been a fantastic atmosphere.

The last round of pool games are still sticky while the SF's are coming up this weekend. Maybe you need more moderators.

Travel would a real problem. Now an American conference paired with the African conference might work. Two teams in Argentina, one in Brazil, one in Chile / USA and one in Namibia might work out and...
