Impressive from Clermont. Lots of injuries as well.

All Welsh hopes on the Scarlets now. They’ve been miles better than us these last couple of years and a better representation of Wales can’t say we really deserved it after only 2 wins and a draw. Did loads better than I thought we would tbf.

Paid the price for that shocking first half. Bottled 3 good opportunities but they were good today all in all

Annoying that the Scarlets game isn't on tv. Who cares about Bath v Benneton?

Impressive from Ashton.
Thems the risks of playing that style for Scarlets.

How are the players not knackered? I'm exhausted just watching it!

Based on the performances I've seen today I know which scrum half I'd be picking for Wales.

So we've now got the draw for the quarter final.
Leinster v Sarries
Scarlets v La Rochelle
Munster v Toulon
Clermont v Racing
Some interesting matches in there.
Leinster v Sarries should be a belter, and I just hope Sarries are back up to speed by then, because that has the makings of what should be a final.
Scarlets v La Rochelle is an amazing contrast of styles. Scarlets playing the exciting rugby they do against the extremely blunt, but effective instrument that is La Rochelle.
Similarly Munster seem to be playing some good rugby this year, and who knows which Toulon team will turn up.
Don't care about the last game really. The only disappointment with the tournament so far is the apparent dominance of the French teams proving that money will soon be as important in rugby as it is in football.

They don't look too much off the pace when putting 62 past Northampton!

True but Quins put 50 past Northampton in a game that actually mattered, so I wouldn't read too much into that.
The performances against Ospreys and Clermont were more concerning, particularly considering how lethal Leinster have looked so far this season.
If the games were tomorrow I'd expect a semi-final lineup of Leinster, Scarlets, Toulon and Clermont, although I would be surprised if there was more than 10 points in any of the games.
