Have Toulon a hat trick of HECs or is a mix and therefore not a hat trick.

Re: I'm still calling it the Heineken Cup 2016-2017
if we make a quarter final we really want it to be on a Sunday
for round 3 how likely is it we get Zebre or Edinburgh or Sale or lowest ranked French team at home?

If we a high profile team from both the French and English leagues in our group along with one of the above, they are likely to be paired together for the double-header fixtures in December, and we would thus be paired with the group's 4th seeds.simonokeeffe wrote:if we make a quarter final we really want it to be on a Sunday

I'm genuinely shocked that the final venue isn't either Wembley or Lyon.

Italy will never get a final now
We probably wont either for a long time under excuse of size of LR but mainly a grudge
Cardiff will get it in 3 years
