[QUOTE="munstermuffin, post: 1167433, member: 39240"] A good result for Leinster but think all the top team (Toulouse, Leinster, La Rochelle, Saracens) are still months off being up to scratch after RWC. We drew yesterday and on reflection it was a decent result. We don't have depth and still muscled a draw despite missing 3 guaranteed starters in the backs (2 being vital lads) and 8 forwards up front. Not taking anything away from Bayonne though as they deserved the win and I would argue they were one of the best set of away fans I've ever seen at Thomond Park. But the fact the structure of the pools means it is relatively easy to qualify and it will be the knockouts when this competition really gets going. [/QUOTE]
