I took up the season ticket option to buy tickets for this game, but now wont be able to attend. Seated in Section 119. Have 4 tickets - 2 X adult and 2 X junior. Cost (net of discount and including fees) was €37.95 each for the adult and €12.80 each for the junior tickets. Happy to pass them on (in...

Terrific performance. So many highlights, but how good was James Lowe in preventing that 50:22!

Hi all, My name is Philippe, support Clermont, but I live in Marseille. First of all, congrats for your fantastic game against Toulouse. If you need anything about your trip in Marseille, just ask me. You are welcome in the far south... Hi Philippe, I will be landing in Marseilles airport at 13.35 ...

Have 2 spare tickets for Saturday. Face value €45 each. Can email them on.
PM if interested.

Always interesting to have a look over the fence and see what our opponent's fans are saying about the game. I cant recall a more downbeat discussion amongst fans regarding their team's chances

I think they stream games on their youtube channel - at least that's what they used recently for a Connacht A V Munster A game.

Best of luck to CJ; great player and always seemed to give 100% in red and green. Genuinely nice bloke as well. Any thoughts on why the announcement was made 4 days before a very big game? Given that he is retiring for family reasons, there should not have been any reason not to delay the announceme...

Fully agree. Thanks for all the info / insights etc etc. Much appreciated.

But in fairness to Munster that would be fair, because Leinster have a bigger population.

Fully appreciate that there are bigger issues in the world right now, but on the singular consideration of whether there should be no name, with just an asterisk beside the 2019/20 Pro 14 season champions, or the name of the team that were head and shoulders above all others in the competition, I wi...
