So it's Northampton or Gloucester. Could book flights for Birmingham if you knew the date....

Well pinky my apologies, because of unlikely Quins BP, It should be Northampton. Still think Gloucester in Edinburgh have a fair chance to make it through instead of them though
Whatever now, we have to focus of reviving a bit of rugby into our current mess...

EDIT : Favgav, wrote this at the exact same time you did!

Hopefully it'll be Northampton, at least lose somewhere else. Another defeat to Gloucester to cap off this depressing last few weeks would be too hard to stomach.

So just to be clear,
Connacht will be playing Northampton. However, if Gloucester win the challenge cup, then Gloucester will take Northamptons place.

For the french opponent of Cardiff it's more complex : it's Stade Français OR Stade Français
A lot at stake for Stade Français in the Challenge Cup final

Stade fielded a second string last night. Very unlucky not to have succeeded. Team well rested in advance of Challenge Cup final.

Wondering what the plan would be for the play offs. Another mass exodus bus wise or everyone make their own way.....

Isn't there some enquiry into the Montpellier v Stade game?
www.rugbyrama.fr/rugby/top-14/2016-2017/...o6156148/story.shtml

Stade could be awarded the win, pushes them to 6th meaning they qualify automatically and its Racing 92 that move down to 7th

Ahh French rugby drama

The only advantage to playing Saints is access to 4 decent airports with connections to nearly all our airports. And once landed it's the same for transport link's.
Plus I've lots of relations in Northampton.

But we've a few scores to settle in Kingsholm.


Going to the Sportsgrounds is a bit like Mass:You stay until the players are off the pitch and never leave early!

wp :

Unlikely to go further, the LNF had authorized Du Plessis to play

Wouldn't mind another bus and boat trip. Its a really good way of just meeting up with folks and sharing your 'individual' viewpoint
