[QUOTE="coonor, post: 503562, member: 39776"] Ospreys are playing well but at h-cup level I don't think they will have the consistency or know how in order to win, however they certainly could cause some upsets. I would never count Munster out but like The Ospreys I don't think they can keep up any kind off form that would make them capable of winning. I think Leicester could come back strong but in terms of the h-cup, I don know whether they have the dynamism or players with composed heads to win. However if they can stay clear of Leinster they can defiantly pull it off. I think Ulster could come back strong and full of determination, with what looks to be an improving squad and depending on their new coaches ability to settle in, they could easily win the competition especially if the competition means teams have to travel to Ravenhill. Clermont have the star quality but don't appear to have the efficiency as Leinster do, and I think they lack a ten that can control them. Having said that they could defiantly make it there. At the moment I think Leinster are in the best position for next year. If they continue at the standard they are currently then I can see no other team toppling them. Also if they have home knock out stages, I can't see anyone beating them. Their squad depth is immense and contrary to what you say MM, I would argue that Leinsters key players are now a days the likes of Heaslip and Sexton rather than Cullen and Darcy. O'Driscoll is obviously getting on abit but he looks as fit and wise as ever and his maturity gives our backline a special edge for big games that I don't think other teams have. [/QUOTE]
