Times reporting Saracens to accept another 35 point deduction and effective relegation. Wow.

They could still get 28pts, finish above LI.

Naw....They are gone.....full bore on Heineken now - imagine they win that and have to defend with a Championship squad.

Can Saracens play in the Champions Cup if relegated?
No. While the winners of the Champions Cup qualify for next season's tournament - and Saracens are still in contention - European organisers have confirmed to the BBC that only teams from the Premiership, Top 14 and Pro 14 are eligible to play in European competitions. The only exceptions are the teams from emerging nations who play in the Challenge Cup.

28 pts would see them avoid relegation for the last 7 seasons except last season.
If they do that then it was worth the cheating.

Saints currently winning with a TBP in Lyon, meaning they'd go to 19.

Leaving us possibly facing...Sarries...

Clermont trying to go full Clermont here.

I've just turned on the TV. What was the controversy at the end and why were Clermont being booed off?

I don't know if this is actually the reason but when the ball went loose from the lineout a Clermont player was on the floor and played the ball.

Ulster 22-15 Bath.
Bath made them work for it. Ulster scrum and lineout are a mess, wont go any further unless its sorted.
Stockdale is really off form making lots of silly errors.
Addison is looking really sharp.
Teams are going to cop on to Bily Burns habit of opening his gob wide for the pass and wider for the skip pass.

That's it??
The commentators were mentioning dodgy substitutions and referencing bloodgate so I wondered if something else had happened.

[LeRouxIsPHat]

Gustard has had a pop at Clermont because of a dodgy HIA replacement at the end with their props. I think something might come from this, it doesn't look great.

Yeah I've just heard about that now, that must be it.

Playing the ball on the deck was very blatant though, I'd have been pissed off at a game ending like that. I'd say it was a combination of things really.

HT: Sale 0-21 Glasgow
Glasgow look like scoring everytime they get near the line.
Nakawara in the bin for 1st 10 mins of 2nd half though.

[Twist]

There’s the BP for Glasgow. 28-0 now. Bad news for Munster

Yes but did you see his first ten mins of the first half.
I'd forgotten how much we need him.

Still an outside chance of a trip to Dublin.

FT: Sale7-45 Glasgow
A proper spanking. Nakarawa is back for sure.
Glasgow now need wins for Racing and Toulouse to make the QFs.

[blockhead]

Lets for a moment assume that Toulouse will beat Glocks tomorrow and put it to one side.
If Racing win, we play Glasgow.
If Sarries win, we play Sarries.
If Sarries win with a BP, we play Northampton.
If Sarries draw and score 4 tries, we play Sarries

Have I got that right?
