Exeter, Saints, Tiggs, Wus, Sharks, Bath.

Not sure why but i just think Bath have a chance.

Great game between Exeter and Gloucester shame we couldn't get the win but an exciting way to end the season nevertheless.

Stade won't beat Leinster.
Schmidts last European game (possibly last if Glasgow beat them)
Stade aren't the force of old
Leinster at home

I think you may be in the wrong place, or delusional.

Lol meant to reply to j_remos regards Bath being in HEC next season.

As for Prem flicked between Exeter game and Sarries. Exeter and Gloucester was great enjoyable game while Saracens Bath was ok. Farrell didn't kick like a lion though and it was worrying. Sarries pack looked impressive especially at scrum time

Also read wrong thought it meant Bath had chance of HEC after yesterday's results

TBF to Farrell, no one has kicked well at Allianz Park and the conditions for kicking were pretty poor yesterday.

The wind was pretty strong by the look of it, all the kicks were pushed in the same direction.

TBH though, Farrell's kicking isn't as good as a lot of people make it out to be.
When he gets in the zone he is phenomenal, as you saw in the Racing Metro game.
But unless he's in that mood he's just decent.
He also seems to have a very definite range... he can't kick beyond about 40m, up to 40 he's the same as he is at 10m, but beyond it he is no good.
The whole "Ice-man" thing is nonsense, he knows how to talk to the media and he has a fairly cool demeanor, particularly for a 21 year old.
He does crack under pressure though, as you saw in the Toulon game, where he absolutely fell apart when he realised they needed to step up in the second half.
He is very good at keeping his head when his team are on top though...
