[QUOTE="psychic duck, post: 399195, member: 48703"] yes they were home teams, with their home fans, in the exact same ground they chose in the quarter finals where do you think the ERC would have put Perpignan? Paris? No, in Barcelona of course, at HOME Toulouse at Toulouse, at HOME Biarritz at San Sebastian, at HOME Cardiff Blues at Millenium Stadium, at HOME Leinster at Aviva Stadium, at HOME Northampton at Milton Keynes, at HOME, all where the teams have chosen even if the ERC chose the venue, you cannot deny that those matches are not HOME matches, apart from maybe Northampton at MK, but even then they would have far more support and atmosphere there than the opposition fans, making it a HOME tie the Munster/Leinster occaison is the only example of the team given a Home tie not having an advantage, and is a one off [/QUOTE]
