Going to stick my neck out and say that I fancy Toulon to batter Cardiff if last week's performances are anything to go by

Yes, by winning every game bar the one they didn't need to win.
A rare event coming up next. Castres have named a proper team for an away match. Almost as rare an event as them winning an away game. At least today they may try for about 20 minutes, which will be 18 mins more than usual.
A good time to take on Leinster with a bunch of players missing. If it goes well for 20 mins they might even try for another 20.
Good try Ulster, Montpellier got their numbers all wrong.
Just a blatant knock-on just outside his own 22 that was missed RM.
Ulster won an extremely dubious pen and knocked it wide. Both Pienaar and Jackson have missed pens.

Looks a bit foregone in Dublin. Think i'll stick with the one that is actually a contest.
Ulster have figured out what to do, hoof it high, so it's going to be like watching SA from a few years ago for the rest of the game.
Nobody watching the Castres game? Sounds like Castres have managed a try.
I missed it was watching the last C4 race from Ascot which was a cracker. Looks like they will still be well in this come HT though still hard to imagine them winning it from what I have seen.
Another pretty dull game here, not doing too well for entertainment so far.

Well, as Cardiff proved, if you are within a score at the end that's all you need.
Oh no, something happened and i wasn't watching!
Is it 10-7?

From a promising Castres attack to a Leinster try in a matter of seconds.
idiot yellow card punished didn't look like scoring a try with 15 0n 15
Castres still got a chance here but seem to have no brains
oh well, French led some down the road of wasted funds in that first period of the second half. A false dawn.
Speaking of which, time to have a go at Munster. Glos are such a ridiculous team they could well give us some fun this evening if they can get amongst things up front, or should I say "front up"
Regardless, I feel strangely happier laying Munster than Leinster.

That is an excellent win for Ulster. Puts a real dent in Mont P hopes for sure.
from the second tier of French juggernauts I have an interest in racing to progress to semis tonights game will tell us all we need to know! Im with vis against munster for giggles great day for ulster
glaws team news looks like they've given this one up already 
Yes, it does, which is all the stranger for the fact that they actually beat Perpignan last week.
Pretty rubbish day for me today, after a good result last night. Biggest bet of the day is on Racing Metro though, struggling to see how Llanelli handle this giant French pack.
Priestland misses 2 kicks at goal. Then Racing fail to score a try due to the bounce of the ball. Not 100% sure Sexton needed to cross kick, but if it bounced up for Plante it was 0-5.
Absolute shambles of a scrum, could probably have penalised each team twice in that, but Metro score. Could have been Metro wheeling it, or Scarlets failing to keep it straight, but Paterson just says play on.

Good pace to this game, finally, after some pretty average views this weekend.

Metro a bit flattered by the score.

Glos are gone here.
Time for a bit of the other game I reckon.

I'm out for profit already. Got my money back from all that I chucked away on the Toulon game, which was plenty.
That lump has been seen before on a few other games this weekend. Wanted a similar amount on Montpellier at 1.27 and I was too busy faffing around to lay any.
might have some fun in this Racing game if Scarlets do something. Lots of people have just laid Racing.
Erm, it was mostly me. Got a lucky horseshoe stuck up me bum at the moment it seems. Stay on you Scarlets!!!
you must have very deep pockets RM - I am a pauper bettor in comparison
good luck anyway - it was a lovely value lay with Scarlets having a pen which they then scored and still it didn't go

It would be better if Sky had 2 screens and dispensed with 3. Tries of the Day.
I had a hefty wedge on Metro to start, got out at 1.36 and 1.44 because 12 minutes in that's just too good to turn down, so had a bit to play with, but I still laid a lot more than I should really be laying. Out again now, although I could do with levelling off completely and sitting back with a cuppa.
I'm all for low odds in tight games early in the first half!

It was me as well RM though obviously not as much as you.
And I backed back at 4 and 4.2.
I'm too nervous of the Scarlets backs.

no right player - I've lost the plot
and there is the scaffolding mention and now "he's a tough boy" it's 1.01 that gets a mention every game he plays in this HC

Wow, that is an exceptionally harsh yellow.
No surprise that Quinnell thinks it's a card, but as much as it suits me I'm not at all convinced.

What a turnaround. One very iffy yellow for Racing, one very fair one (could have been red) and the Scarlets capitalise, although they never looked like doing much damage up front.

Metro in from a powerful scrum. I like Matadigo, good player.

I really don't think Scarlets did enough when Racing had men in the bin. Starting to look like the French are coming home stronger in this one.
think the ref owes racing one or two 50 50 s as well
Yes, I'm inclined to agree, although he helped them with their first try by just shrugging his shoulders and giving up. Was pretty much my reaction as well though to be fair.
How daft was that. One player did brilliantly to push Scarlets off the ruck, the next one bombs in from the side.
Although if the ref pinged the first one, which it sounded like, he's a pillock.

Quinnel is right that that could have been a pen, IF a Scarlets player is actually blocked. If nobody makes an effort towards the ball they can't be blocking anyone. Not sure they were all listening at training.
I like to think I am the most biased viewer of games but quinnel is shameless bless him!!!
Yep, Quinnell is a likeable lad, but he can't commentate on Scarlets games, it gets silly.
Amazing maul, but Sexton fluffs his lines again.

v poor from Sexton. Racing really should be winning this
Well, I'm going to be very happy with a draw here, but a shame it's in a game where I've build up a huge green on both teams. Seems like a waste.
well that was worth switching games for
might have missed it completely had Glos not been so shocking to start with

Happy days, think I'm going to wander down the pub and indulge in some celebrations.....
Bill MaClaren's love for the game outshone his close links with Scottish rugby though there were times when he got a little more excited when Scotland were playing.
English comms have an advantage in the biased/unbiased stakes as they so rarely communicate any passion.

What about Brian Moore
To be fair he tries his best to be calm, but somehow he sounds worse than Butler while actually being less biased. Just the way he tells 'em.

personally I like the passion as long as they try to interpret what they see fairly.
Brian Moore improved and I found it amusing he couldn't watch a scrum without complaining about the ball not being put in straight.
Surely BM AND EB are the BBC's top team.

hi sewter
yeah sounds like a good atmosphere ...... I think sacking their defence coach must have helped.

It will be interesting to see how well Exeter go tomorrow because they looked phenomenal in the first half last week.
