[QUOTE="Prestwick, post: 232290"] Viadana actually have a good record in European competition. The problem is that they're consistently under the radar and suffer the "once in a blue moon" jibes because they've been denied by a single try or penalty. Last season for example they caused mayhem against the likes of Barritz, Glasgow and Saracens at home and away. The results almost ALWAYS seriously flattered the likes of the big teams. Even this year, they've beaten Stade Montois, Bayonne and almost beat Saracens. Like I reported back in October, this is a team to be reckoned with, if you just dismiss them out of hand like a lot of fans and teams have done, you're going to end up humbled. So far, they've had two French scalps and almost had a superclub scalp and a Caledonian one last season. Next season? Don't rule them out, they're the Edinburgh of Italy ;) [/QUOTE]
