Not so sure about Saracens. Watched them against Newcastle, who are hardly a great side and they were definetely second best to the Falcons. They should advance but i dont think they can win it.

Toulouse haven't lost to Edinburgh this year. They beat them twice in Europe.

well they've been poor away from home, although their excuse about the young scientists being a bit rowdy in Dublin and disturbing them was entirely justified :wacko:
so they'll be hoping the draw is kind to them tomorrow.

Quite right, there.
They were just PERFORMING terribly.

I think Munster will have too much nous about them for every side bar possibly Toulouse. They can always compete up front and now with Howlett, Mafi, Tipoki etc. they have a very good back line too. While I would love to see Saracens win it, and I think they will get to the semis, I just think they lack the experience to go and win it.
Munster or Toulouse.

But Munster look very beatable, especially by Glos or Ospreys on a fast dry pitch.

Munster's record in England is poor to say the least, Leicester aside, so they'll hardly be going to Kingsholm full of confidence, where they've lost twice in recent seasons and it has to be remembered as well they've lost both their proper away games so far so definitely an uphill task for Munster.
Gloucester are favourites but the one thing Munster will take is that they seem to be ******** it, Dean Ryan looked gutted in his interview when he knew he'd gotten Munster. The one thing you can never afford to do with Munster is give them any psychological edge.

It might have seemed it by as we have seen this year at Murrayfield Edinburgh are very tough to beat as Leicester and Leinster have found out to their cost. So to win in Edinburgh was a good result and there performance last weekend was excellent.

Toulouse all the way, except if they have more key players out injured. They have the squad , the flair and the will to go through steamrolling any side. But there's a lot of rugby to play till the QF so (Top14 and 6N)...

Toulouse are the best team left in the competition, but that doesn't mean they'll win.

Yep, that doesn't.

well they'll certainly come through the quarter final no bother but if it's an away tie against Perpignan that won't be the easiest tie for them even though they'd be expected to get the win.

I think that this year Toulouse will win the HC....

Ospreys have a chance, probably

If Wales continue winning, I wouldn't bet against the Ospreys lifting the Heineken cup considering the amount of Welsh players they have, their confidence will the sky high! There's also the added advantage of if they win their quarter final, they'll be playing in Wales for the final two games.
