Re: Draw for H Cup / Champions Cup 2019
2pm start time for the draws on the 20th, doing the Challenge Cup first.

Assume that 2pm is local time in Switzerland so we'll have our usual lunchtime appointment at the desk to figure out the permutations?neill_m wrote:2pm start time for the draws on the 20th, doing the Challenge Cup first.

Re: Draw for H Cup / Champions Cup 2019
We might have lost one to many quality players to win this pot. Any injuries might just be the tipping point.

Re: Draw for H Cup / Champions Cup 2019
No easy Groups. Some a little easier than others. But none are made any easier by drawing Toulon from Pot 4. Definitely the team to avoid from that Pot.

Sad day not having the possibility of Clermont, a team in so many ways you hate to get but also as a Leinster fan love to get.

One thing for sure a lot of teams are going to be unhappy they draw Leinster.

Re: Draw for H Cup / Champions Cup 2019
The key is to avoid Toloun as the 4th seed. Hopefully Munster draw them.
Exeter and Racing getting drawn into the 1st seed pot would be good as well as it means that we avoid both in our pool.
If Munster drew Exeter, Racing, Toloun I would be so happy I wouldn’t care what we drew.

Re: Draw for H Cup / Champions Cup 2019
Newcastle, Lyon and Glos from Pool 4 would be a fantastic draw. Two new spots to visit and an old fave too.
(Albeit, I do wonder if a so called handier draw actually benefits you over the long term, since it may mean a lack of battle hardness if you get through?
Lein, Wasps, Toulouse, Bath would be a cracker of a group also. Some old foes there!

You think that's our only chance to visit Newcastle?
