actually it may be anticlimatic...

Leinster, exeter, racing and toulouse have all won their groups.... clarmont and ulster will both probably go through if they don't slip up...

so really it is any 2 from northampton, saracens, and gloucester.... with glasgow having an outside shot

even next weekends saracens vs racing game could well be 2nds vs 2nds depending on how both teams decide to approach it....

Sexton is natural choice, but wonder if injury/ being taken out early in matches will mean he won’t end up doing much captaining .. he is clocking on a bit at 34

update....

looks like saracens are going to accept another 35pt deduction for still playing above salary cap rules...

which will me 2 things...

1) they will be relegated to the championship

2) they won't be allowed to play in european competition next year even if they win the european cup (ERC have confirmed comp is only open to Premiership, Top 14 and Pro 14 teams)

sound like from reports they have been playing at a level as much as 2 million over the salary cap rules!

Fabio id say saracens are nearer 15-20 million over the wage cap. Most english teams have around 6-8 internationals in the complete squad. Saracens will have 25 at least. Level playing field. Exeter have been robbed

well it kinda answers the question that everyone had been asking.... which is they weren't complying!

the other thing is you have to also ask how they are going to get below the cap... because you can't agree to compensation to cut contracts short, because that will go against the cap! (didn't know that before!)

also the england players can't go to france because they won't be considered for england (and probably the lions)

so liam williams is going back to cardiff... you wonder if the welsh and scottish players will be approached by their provinces (sean maitland, duncan taylor)

also..... you do see if the big players will be loaned out to other clubs... if they have spaces!

Shame they wouldn’t be able to defend their title next year if they win it this year and then end up being chucked down to the lower league.

Hi _abio. I believe the english players can be picked if they stay & are relegated, im certain they can be. Its all a mess but this isnt the first time an eyebrows been raised at saracens. The books of teams were questioned around 5 years ago or so & it was found 2 teams were over the linit. im certain Newcastle was one but they rectified it the other team wouldnt say who they were. The arrow pointed to saracens

Despite this being the worst kept secret, the premier league ltd knowing about this going on for all this time, they still insist on being cloak and daggers about the actual detail and the facts.

Yep, thats saracens officially relegated at the end of the season. Be interesting to see what happens with the players as there is plenty talent at the club and not sure many of them want to play in the second tier.

okay... that was gutsy by sarries...

that puts them in the final "quarter final" at the moment before the Toulouse vs Gloucester game, and gloucester will need a bonus point victory...

so it will be interesting to basically see if sarries rest all the top players in the league to then play them in the cup!

also.... if i am no.1 seeds leinster, even though the quarter final would be at landsdown Road i'd be gutted to see Saracens as the "8 Seed".....

right... this is what now depends on the Toulouse gloucester game...

if Toulouse get a bonus point win.. and win by more then 25...

2 seed... home to Northampton... potential home semi.. (likely played in marseille)

if toulouse get a 4 point win.....

3 seed... home to Ulster....

if toulouse draw.......

4 seed.... home to Clermont

......................................

if gloucester get a victory by more than 12

8 seed.... away to leinster....

bonus point victory.....

7 seed.... away to exeter....

Scrap that, just read it.

He is such an influential player - Watching him playing Racing Munster game last week and Racing Sarries on Sunday - He’s on form, and was up until today a key player in the Scotland setup for the 6N"

I know, he’ll be a massive loss for ye.

Nice to see that it’s the same rules/discipline for all though.

Maybe he’s hanging out with Zeebs too much at Racing!

Yes... none of that wriggling around on the floor nonsense support your own body weight and get in there and try to turn over the ball - not to mention the “dark arts” stuff in the scrum

So ... sarries maybe get deducted champions cup points and Glasgow go through to play-offs???

Acceptable outcome ?

sarries had an almost fair excuse this time in that the player in question was only inelligible because his work permit had run out the day before the game, and they didn't know... so there excuse was that if the game had been held on the friday or saturday there would have been no problem, but because the game was specifically moved to sunday for television because it was the only group that everything was to play for, it was unfair

Yes, shame she has gone... hopefully only a break for now...

I am also hoping her departure has nothing to do with the fact you didn't oblige her with a snuggie photo - I would hate you forever

Swing low .... not sure banning it from being sung will do anything to tackle racism.

If anything I think its history and its use in society does more good than if it was erased from the record.

There is also the point that if you try to tell a rugby crowd not to do something, then they will do it more and with extra volume..

I'm sure next up for review will be the Scottish anthem... i mean what could be offensive with singing at the top of your voice about slaying the english...
