[RaboDirect Pro12] Who will lift the trophy this year?

[TRF_Ezequiel]

In the new Celtic League we have 12 teams. This will be the second year in a row we have the 2 Italian franchises Benetton Treviso and Aironi Rugby included in the competition.

Munster will be doing everything they can to retain the ***le, but can Ospreys get it back after losing it last year? Can Leinster win it this time after losing the final last season? And how about Connacht? Can they finally shake off the image of Irish wooden spoon certainties?

Will we see a Scottish team lifting it? Or a Welsh one?

Go nuts!

Gone for the Scarlets, for obvious reasons

Hopefully if our pack gets a little stronger, then the strength of our backs could get us there. Doubt we'll win though, but a play-off place maybe, seeing as we we're robbed last year

Its our year.

It just is.

Ignore the start. We're lulling them into a sense of false security.

I think the Ospreys will top the table, have a home semi and home final. If thats the case they'll be favourites to win.

However theres also outside factors like the HEC. If Ospreys are in the knock out stages of the HEC they might take their eye off the Pro 12 ball.

Morally I have to support Ulster.

Leinster no bones about it have the best squad so hard to see past us winning.
