[QUOTE="j'nuh, post: 532057, member: 55446"] I think he's saying that the teams which deserve to be in the Heineken Cup are the ones who have such quality in depth that they can play a second team in the domestic league and get into the top 6. Premiership is too competitive for that to happen though. The difference in quality between the top and bottom teams in the Premiership is a lot more narrow than in the Pro12. It would be silly to play a second string against London Welsh/Sale, but it would be less silly to do it against Connacht/Zebre. [/QUOTE]
