Toulouse v Cardiff cancelled due to Covid. Cardiff awarded a 28-0 win. Connacht through to the last 16 as a result. Toulouse and the LNR aren't happy with the EPCR (a change from the silence following the Montpellier-Leinster debacle).

Depending on how results fall over the weekend, Tolouse may be eliminated from the next round now. If they don't like the rule they should have spoken up when it was first being applied.

I can see Leinster easily putting 50 points on Bath.

I do think Connacht will beat Stade. They're struggling in the Top 14 and really shouldn't bother their arses risking getting players injured in a nothing fixture.

I thought Montpellier were all but qualified too?

No, there's a good chance of Exeter giving them a kicking and Glasgow have a decent chance of getting at least a point from La Rochelle. They're on the same points as Glasgow and Glasgow have a lot better points difference

French outraged to discover that it cuts both ways.

The English league is incredibly overrated. I will never tire of watching them lose, especially at home, on BT. Leinster were arguably in 2nd gear, just had to let Bath blitz for two or three phases and wait for the gaps Harlequins were incredibly lucky last night too, yer man Adamson the red is appalling. He missed three foreward passes right in front of him and gifted Quins so many penalties at the breakdown. He was adamant they were going to have throw the game away at the end last night.
