I didn't like it enough in person, but a lot of our guys traded.
We lost 48-28. It was 31-28 late in the second half when we gave up a couple soft tries.

But wow...the Saracens today
Sarries are the team I follow in the Premiership and that is their best game in who knows when...and very nice to see Wyles (US Eagle) get a try....
Congrats! As a Clermont fan that was a tough game to watch this weekend. Saracens looked nothing like the team that lost in Wembley to Toulouse in pool stages and Clermont looked very much like the team that was held try less against Montpelier just last week. I was prepared to blame Nigel Owens cause I don't think that penalty try should have been awarded but it turns out it wouldn't have made a difference anyway cause Saracens were that dominating. The defense never let up the whole game and props to Chris Ashton for becoming the leading try scorer in a season in the H-Cup. Now I guess Clermont can focus on winning the Top 14 before Vern Cotter leaves to be the head man of the Scottish national side.
Toulon vs Munster was a much more competitive match. Toulon got off to an early lead but Munster kept hanging around and about midway through the second half managed to pull within two points before a late try and a Johnny Wilkinson goal but the game away. Now it's off to Cardiff to defend their title against the surging Saracens.

That said, I do think the Wallabies will be the team to beat in the June tours. With Isreal Falau, Rob Davies, Ashley-Cooper, etc their backline is going to be ridiculous.
Yeah I can't wait for this test series I know we're bringing a very heavy pack down there this time. Plus I hoping we can finally see Fickou pairing with Fofana at center. I'd like to see Parra back at scrum-half though instead of Doussain or Machenaud.

I was torn on who to cheer for. Being part Trinidadian, I like how great the Armitage brothers have been playing lately so I like to cheer for Toulon. But I spent a few days in Limerick/Adare and toured Thomond Park and have a Munster jersey, so I like them too obviously. In the end, I just wanted a good match after watching Saturday's beatdown.
Gonna pull for Toulon over Saracens though.

If Enlgand were smart they'd call up Delon. He's been in top form. quote:

Same here being I'm a Top 14 and French Rugby fan.

Cheering for the Sarries...
I know there fanbase gets a lot of crap, but when I was at the Premiership Championship a couple years ago against Leicester, their fans could not have been nicer or more gracious when winning.
That is a fun Saturday to be out in Twickenham if you get a chance.

Did you see the leak about the new Super Rugby configuration....more teams for SA? They have been very weak this year. Not sure adding more is better.
I do love the free Super Rugby on Directv
As for the other games, hoping that Munster bounces back.
I expect Leinster to beat Ulster pretty good...Ulster's best game all year was the loss to the Sarries..

Just reading the story about it now LINK
I do like the idea of an Argentinian team though
Wish I had Direct TV I have to download torrents each week for my Super Rugby matches
Yeah I expect Munster to bounce back after the loss to Toulon and I agree Leinster looks like the team to beat in the Pro 12 this year, but as we all know that's why they play the games

Getting ready to watch it now! Then if it's not too late I might try and watch the Toulon vs Stade Francais match.
Brumbies vs Crusaders was a one sided affair as was Montpellier vs Racing but Leinster vs Ulster and Northampton vs Bath were both exciting games.
They had a Test Match in Rugby League too this weekend between Australia and New Zealand.

South Champs:
that's just unreal. After the beating AOW took a few weeks ago, to go back to Charlotte and do that...really impressive. I'll be cheering for you guys no doubt. Especially to knock off those sandbaggers at Wisconsin RFC.
Little Rock won the Texas D2 conference. I think it's funny that the two USA Rugby South transplants New Orleans and Little Rock enter into the Texas Rugby Union and win the D1 and D2 titles in our first years.
