Tactics

- Very much a traditional South African game plan as adopted by Heyneke Meyer.

- Tight forward dominated game with big carriers punching holes in the Toulouse defence.

- Kick/Chase game using our wingers to hunt the ball as it drops and if the opposition winger takes it to wrap him up in the tackle and isolate him to either win us the turnover or the penalty.

- Really go for it on turnover ball and get the ball through the hands and exploit the disorganised defence.

- Use Daly's cannon of a boot to play in the Toulouse half of the pitch.

- Solid defensive line with Liam Gill either stealing or slowing the ball at the breakdown.

- If we are going through the phases and getting nowhere near to the Toulouse twenty-two then take the drop goal and the three points.

16. Rob Buchanan 17. Wyatt Crockett 18. John Afoa 19. Bakkies Botha 20. Dave Denton 21. Lee Dickson 22. Quade Cooper 23. Matt Smith

Tactics

We are going for the 5 point win. We want to put on big pressure up front and score some tries. Ultimately the win in the most important thing but 4 tries is also hugely important. Keep the ball in and tire Cardiff and then exploit the gaps wherever they come with Houghard, Burns and Contepomi controlling the game and directing out forwards and backs. Cardiff have nothing to play for so we feel they will be beatable at the Arms Park.



P6 Montpellier vs. Toulon

Post by dammit_chris Fri 18 Jan 2013, 10:28 am

Gloucester 38 - 18 Edinburgh
In Scotland this would be a lot closer, but an Edinburgh team low of confidence, hardly knowing how to score a try will get ruined at the Shed. Impact bench will see Gloucester walk it and Edinburgh just want their HC campaign to end.

Saracens 21 - 20 Toulouse
Toulouse haven't impressed me that much so far this season and with some world class players scattered throughout the Sarries team I think this could be a great home win. Toulouse forwards are very good but can't see their backs getting any joy, whilst Nonu and de Villiers is a very good combination to get you front foot ball.

Biarritz 11 - 18 Newcastle
Tough place to travel away, but Biarritz haven't been great this season. Will be hard, physical contest but see Falcons getting some joy in the setpiece - only issue for me with them is O'Connoll and Croft not having much form.

Glasgow 12 - 30 Tigers
Too much all over the park for Tigers - Scottish club rugby in real trouble at the moment.

Irish - Leinster
No Irish team?

Cardiff 22 - 27 Quins
Again will be a hard game for Quins but they will win away from home - they could struggle with gainline breakers until Botha and Denton come on, as Easter will be doing a lot of the work there, but Quins got a good balance over the park and a great backrow that will cause Blues all sorts of problems.

Gloucester 49 - 10 Edinburgh

You can ignore Edinburgh's bad form this season. Gloucester will tonk them here and finish off a successful HC Pool.

Saracens 19 - 17 Toulouse

Great game this one. Probably the game of the round. Upfront I think Saracens are the stronger side but I think the Toulouse backs have a little more craft but the size of the Saracens backline will help them. Half backs to Toulouse also makes a difference. It's very tight, but I'm giving it to Saracens at home.

Northampton 62 - 15 Zebre

Saints canter home here. Big win with a strong side which will take Zebre apart. Safely through to the next round. Only real issue might be at scrum time where Zebre should be competitive.

Biarittz 15 - 24 Newcastle

Newcastle win this game up front. Very tough place to go but Driver has picked a side with an especially strong pack to do a job on the Frenchmen, who have good players but not across the board.

Glasgow 22 - 32 Leicester

Easy win again for Leicester. Glasgow keep it tight in early exchanges but Leicester will begin to pull away as the game goes on. Good TBP win.

Irish 0 - 30 Leinster

Ends a pretty miserable HC campaign for Irish.

Gloucester 41-16 Edinburgh
Worst side in European history against a strong Glaws side. Only one outcome here.


Saracens 17-18 Toulouse
Toulouse that bit stronger in the back 5 of the pack and give McAllister the shots at goal needed.


Northampton 53-9 Zebre
Saints backrow a bit unbalanced but with a lot of big names on show they pick up a great points for booster.


Biarittz 16-31 Newcastle
Falcons pack gives them control away in France


Glasgow 20-30 Leicester
Glasgow a decent side and will stick it up to Tigers but fall away in the last quarter to Tigers extra bit of quality


Irish 0 - 30 Leinster


Blues 13-23 Quins
Quins have enough quality to see the win but struggle to get over the gain line at times in this one

Eagle-eyed today SJE, good work. As per my match in the Amlin and others previously this season, Saracens are now a man short on the bench.

Gloucester 44 Edinburgh 10

Edinburgh are arguably the worst team I have seen this season and given who I support, that's saying something!!! Easy win.


Saracens 22 Toulouse 19

I've not been amazingly impressed with Toulouse this season, despite the big names in their side, and I think Saracens simple gameplan would frustrate them and see Saracens edging a tight one at home.


Northampton Saints 62 Zebre 9

Not sure I really need to put anything to justify this scoreline.


Biarritz Olympique 20 Newcastle Falcons 22

Some form issues in the Falcons side, but Biarritz are a poor side at present, even at home, and Falcons have enough to just about win this one.


Glasgow Warriors 13 Leicester Tigers 30

I've not seen a lot of Glasgow this season , but I did watch them against Ulster last week, and frankly they are not very good. Easy win for Tigers.


London Irish 0 Leinster 30

So much for El Dios claim of being active!!!


Cardiff Blues 16 Harlequins 23

Blues not a good side. Would have been a much bigger win for Quins at home.

Gloucester 55 Edinburgh 13

Gloucester have way too much for a poor edingburgh side , Only Visser will cause Glaws problems in this game.

Saracens 15 Toulouse 12

Best way to beat the best is get your basics right and Saracens game plan suggests this. Toulouse not being at there best is a big help.

Northampton Saints 68 Zebre

Yeah Zebra..............

Glawsgow Warrions 19 Leicester Tigers 37

Glasgow are tough team to crack at home but tigers run riot after a while are bag the TBP.

London Irish 0 Leinster 30

Leinster unstoppable this week , almost as if Irish didn't turn up.

Cardiff Blues 6 Harlequins 28

Blues another poor side and Quins better throughout.

Saracens18-18 Toulouse
Toulouse that bit stronger in the back 5 of the pack but sarries have some great players and set out well. Toulouse not what they were but pedigree snatches the draw


Northampton 72-9 Zebre
Saints qualify top seeds I think. Easy


Biarittz 16-20 Newcastle
Falcons pack gets on top. Horrible place to play and conditions awful as the Atlantic winds thrash the place. Reason why Biarritz is a windsurfing and kiting hot spot.

Glasgow 20-40Leicester
Tigers extra bit of quality





Blues 13-23 Quins
Quins have enough quality to be in game and bench takes it away

Gloucester 32 - 12 Edinburgh

Decent team from the North border who will play a hard game. But their form has been iffy. A class above from Gloucester who will seal a strong win.

Saracens 20 - 22 Toulouse

A brilliant contest up front this one. But I think the experience of the Toulouse back row and halfbacks will steer them to a sneaky win. Unfortunate for Sarries but McAlisters reliable boot wins it.

Northampton Saints 43 - 9 Zebre

Big home win for the Saints, easily securing the bonus point. With a bit more grit for me in the front five.

Biarittz 17 - 27 Newcastle Falcons

Falcons pack win the game, with their backs scoring the points. Tough game away BO, but they take it in their stride.

Glasgow 18 - 31 Leicester Tigers

The strong Tigers squad will put them in the hot seat for an easy win. They'll push for the bonus pint and just get it, Glasgow aren't quite the force they could be in Europe.

London Irish 0 - 30 Leinster

Cardiff Blues 16 - 25 Harlequins

Just too much overall class from Quins will see them get the win here. Blues backs can cause havoc but not much up front sees them suffer.

In by Thursday midnight. I have not predicted your game as you are new. Think maybe If you put a team in now people will score it properly

Pete makes the final decision though

Gloucester 33-10 Edinburgh
The Glos back row and outside backs will take this.


Saracens 21-18 Toulouse
Sarries set out tactics and squad well and take a good win.


Northampton Saints 58-3 Zebre
Saints simply too strong.


Biarittz 18-28 Newcastle Falcons
Falcons pack takes the win.


Glasgow 16-34 Leicester Tigers
Glasgow not a nice place to go but Tigers squad simply too strong for them.

London Irish 0 - 30 Leinster

Quins take their win with their front 5 dominant.
