Heineken Cup Gents. Let's just enjoy it :)

While it lasts HAHAHA.

I'm going to create a superbru fantasy pool for whoever is interested.

So who is supporting who? And what do you think your chances are?

I'll get the ball rolling. Of course most of you know I'm and out and out Leinster fan.

Despite being ranked No.1 in europe, it's a false positive. We are struggling. We have lost some key players who have helped us no end in the past 5 glorious years. No Sexton, No Necewa. An ageing team. Captain Leo Cullen in his last season. Should have left last year really. Peerless brian o'Driscoll, still playing well but just one man. Also we have lost our manager to the Irish national team which is perhaps the biggest blow. So in a group looking like this:
Leinster
The Saints
The Ospreys
Castre
I think we will do really well to even get out of the group.

Underdogs I will be following. Exeter chiefs. Just bloody love those fans and their crazy tune!!! Best fans i have seen in ages! possibly ever. ANd they follow a really well organised team. despite being possibly whipping boys. I will still cheer them on. like this!!! - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mNxYm0Cx6D0

But for what could be the last time for the next few years. lets enjoy ourselves.
Who are you following? What are your chances? How does your group look?

i'll be supporting Leicester, think Northampton might be in with a shout, but wouldnt look too far past Clermont this year

Going to be another great tournament!

For me, it's hard to look past Toulon. Top quality in every position, and now Habana joing them... well it's just plain unfair.

Saracens could also be a good bet. Looked formiddable so far, adding try's to their outstanding defensive game. They have so much power up front too!

Pool 1 - Northampton (Castres)
Pool 2 - Toulon (Glasgow)
Pool 3 - Saracens (Toulouse)
Pool 4 - Clermont (Racing Metro)
Pool 5 - Leicester (Ulster)
Pool 6 - Munster (Gloucester)

The two second place finishers with the highest points total i believe will be Ulster and Toulouse. Leaving us with 8 quarter finalists of:

Northampton
Toulon
Saracens
Clermont
Leicester
Munster
Ulster
Toulouse

It really is anyone's guess!!!

I'm going to tip Saracens to be the last team standing come May!
