can someone make this a sticky thread please, sorry for not being patient but i just wanted to make sure its done

Munster hopefully for 5 as strong rumours Ulster only bringing a mix of reserve reserves and academy

I could see that. Ospreys can only match their points tally and Ulster have won more games. They have absolutely nothing to play for.

glasgow should beat zebre but credit to them that they have been playing well so it wouldn't be easy but i still think glasgow can do it

Yup. Only thing that can really happen in that game is injuries, so other than guys who need to rack up some gametime, I hope that not a single player from the likely 23 for the semi-final goes.

I think Ulster may use game to try props and maybe just fringe guys. Munster I think we will target 5 from the off. Zebre may shock us and stop Glasgow getting Bonus point. Unlikely we thought Toulouse would get BP in HEC and failed.

 

[Feicarsinn]

Glasgow shouldn't expect an easy game against Zebre. The Italians will be playing for a spot in the Heineken cup next year, they have a lot more on the line than the Scots.

suppose but it be great to guarantee a home semi

Thing I've noticed is Italians are better away from home and well it's more a case of yes you'll beat them but how dogged will they turn up. But agree they've a lot more to play for

Treviso have won 5 and drawn 1 at home. Losing every away match. In the Rabo. There are some massive swings in their home and away results.

Zebre have won 4 at home and drawn 2. They've won 1 match away.

I'm not necessarily on about wins/losses more they're toughness and ability to frustrate.

SOB is back starting this week, ****ing brilliant the medical staff at Leinster deserve a lot of credit for getting him and Healy back so quickly this season. I can't wait.
