The Heineken Cup is dead

[Derek Smith]

The European Rugby Champions Cup will start next season. England, France, the Pro12 lot and emerging nations (not sure whether Wales comes into Pro12 or emerging nations, can anyone help).

Sounds good, but then the HC did good. So not sure how to feel about this. The fact that there's an agreement (not before time) is obviously a positive.

Not dead to us yet....Come on Munster !!!

I think if they did get the victory it would be a match we would be talking of for years. So left us hope so.

What do you call it when a player puts the ball to the ground the other side of the big H thingie?

It was an exciting match, right up until the final penalty. Good play by Munster, but I have to say that Toulon isn't as good as I expected it to be. The final is not a forgone conclusion.
