[QUOTE="Groundhog, post: 1090277, member: 50079"] I'm reasonably confident we can turn Ulster over again. As shocking as we were against Leinster, Beirne (not guaranteed to play), Coombes, Kleyn and O'Mahony back is a big injection of class into the pack. I think we could win our next game against Stormers or Edinburgh too, although this is probably me being wildly overoptimistic. We will rightly be underdogs with the bookies if we have to travel South. Hoping Edinburgh can do us a favor and win in SA. I hope I don't appear dismissive when I say I don't think the SA teams will trouble Leinster in the business end of the comp for this year at least. Playing Leinster means you have to go to Dublin and take on a knockout rugby hardened team who have had their annual underperformance already and that was against an extremely stacked La Rochelle team no matter how you look at it. Leinster's other competition is us, who just refuse to get out of bed whenever we play them, and we have a likely SA trip on the cards, and Ulster who I still just don't think have the credentials at this end of the season.
