Re: Challenge Cup Round Four
Bordeaux 18 - 20 Worcester
French side not at their strongest which helps Worcester here as they aren't either. They have enough to get a good away win.
Bordeaux 20 - 28 Worcester
Bordeaux will hold out for a while, but eventually the quality in the Wuss side will tell, and I'd expect them to win relatively comfortably on the road.
Worcester 16 - 15 Bordeaux
Closer than last week with Bordeuax at home but can still see the English team winner again - just
Bordeaux 23-21 Worcester
The home side have the pack and set piece advantage and can get a good foothold in the game early on. Not much in the backlines but I just can't see Worcester having enough to turn the French over.
Bordeaux 17 - 24 Worcester
Bordeaux pretty good at the scrum, and can take on Worcester here, but Worcester are better elsewhere in the pack esp back row and also have the edge in most places in the backs, even with a backup pairing in the Centres and some fringe players.
Warriors 34-15 Bordeaux
Bordeaux-Begles 15-16Worcester Warriors
Bordeaux Begles 22 - 22 Worcester Warriors
Bordeaux are a tough prospect at home, as a unit and would present a very stiff opposition for the Warriors, who have a very young and much rotated XV out on the field. Bordeaux will be in control for most of the game, but the Wuss bench just has enough to help swing the momentum and snatch a draw away from home.
Bordeaux 20-22 Worcester
Worc will struggle a bit at the scrum but have more about them at the breakdown and great impact late on for the away win.

Re: Challenge Cup Round Four
Edinburgh 20-30 Chiefs
Edinburgh will struggle upfront and Chiefs will get a hold here and look to add pressure to their back row going backwards. Steady back row for Chiefs will do the job. Again more experience out wide for Chiefs with James having alot of quality around him and will thrive. Too much today from Chiefs.
Edinburgh 25 - 28 Exeter
Exeter face a tough game but do enough to win but they don't get a TBP.
Edinburgh 17 - 30 Exeter
Last week's Edinburgh side was a lot stronger, and even on the road posed much more of a threat. This week, a depleted Scots side looks there for the taking, and I'd expect the quality of Exeter's backs to show, easy win
Chiefs 18 - 15 Edinburgh
Bit closer than last week but haven't been overly impressed with the Scottish side so far.
Edinburgh 18-23 Exeter
Exeter have enough in the pack just to get an edge but it won't be all their own way. They step it up a bit in the backline though and have enough to come away with the win.
Edinburgh 19 - 28 Exeter
Exeter are better at the scrum and lineout and with a well selected backrow with ability across it at the breakdown, should be winning the breakdown by a bit. Exeter have a good HB combo and a well balanced backline and should easily win
Exeter 35-23 Edinburgh
Edinburgh Rugby 30-31Exeter Chiefs
Edinburgh 20-30 Exeter
2nd string Edinburgh side mostly and can see Chiefs pushing on for the bonus point against them.

Re: Challenge Cup Round Four
Glos 30-22 Castres
Castres again not really at full strength whereas Glos appear to be. Glos will get the most joy out wide to their speedsters and their back row should put Castres under pressure.
Gloucester 31 - 25 Castres
At home Gloucester have far to much for a poor Castres. Get an important TBP.
Gloucester 44 - 19 Castres
Easy win on the road last week, even easier this week at home with a close to full strength side for Glos. Ridiculous firepower from 9-15 to score tries at will, but may let a couple in too!
Castre 12 - 42 Gloucester
Another BP win for an AP side. Too much in the pack.
Gloucester 35-15 Castres
Gloucester look much stronger in the pack and they'll get a grip of the game early on. If I was going to criticise it would be the flank combo is a little short on graft but this isn't something that would hurt them in this game. Off front foot ball, Cips will have a field day and Gloucester will run home comfortable winners.
Gloucester 31 - 19 Castres
Gloucester should edge the scrum, and with Croft the lineout too. In fact they have an advantage across the pack. A lot of attacking ability in the backline and with the pack advantage they can cut loose.
Casters 18-25 Gloucester
Gloucester 31 - 15 Castres
It is quite a strong Castres side, but not their best. Whereas, on the other hand, Glaws have a very strong line up and will secure a good home victory in this tie.
Gloucester 35-20 Castres
Castres have never taken these games too seriously especially away from home and Glaws gone strong.

Re: Challenge Cup Round Four
Falcons 52-15 Calvisano
Simple win here to be honest, Bam, I reckon your centre combo is steady and, when they work well together for Ulster they are strong, could be a very good future pairing here.
Newcastle 56 - 5 Calvisano
Not much to say. Easy.
Calvisana 10 - 68 Newcastle.
Absolute humping .
Newcastle 45-10 Rugby
Routine win for the Falcons against a pretty lacklustre Rugby C team. Plenty of options in the Newcastle 2nd string and they'll get the routine win.
Newcastle 49 - 6 Calvisiano
Newcastle are much better in the pack and have halfbacks who will keep the whole game in the Calvisiano red zone. I like Mccloskey and Marshall together. Although I think Marshall is more of a 12.
Rugby 6-53 Newcastle
Newcastle Falcons 64-63 Rugby Calvisano
Newcastle Falcons 51 - 7 Rugby Calvisano
Falcons possess too much quality for the italian outfit up front, and this allows their back line the time to make the best use of the space outwide. Bam, I like McCloskey, and the Marshall link is a good one, as we have seen with Ulster recently. I think he is one for the future and with JD2 could be a great partnership in the future.
Falcons 42-0 Calvisano
Walk over here. McCloskey a top talent and may be involved in 6 nations. Marshal not a 13 really though and hasn't kicked on.

Re: Challenge Cup Round Four
Wasps 30-22 Connacht
Easier for Wasps at home against a weaker Connacht side. Wasps front row and back 3 have enough to do the damage and Connacht will go home empty handed here.
Wasps 26 - 20 Connacht
Connacht weakened and Wasps put out a decent outfit. Good win aganst a tough side at home.
Wasps 33 - 14 Connacht
Connacht have played much stronger line ups than this during the season, as it is the Wasps side has far too much physicality up front, and I'd expect them to smash through and pick up a bonus point
Connacht 18 - 25 Wasps
Another tough game for Wasps but can see them getting some joy in Europe this season.
Wasps 32-20 Connacht
Connacht going really well of late but this is a good Wasps side with a good pack and sound set piece. Hodgson will pull the strings off a good platform and they'll get an easy win in the end.
Connacht 21-27 Wasps
London Wasps 42-41 Connacht
Wasps 26 - 24 Connacht
This is the best game of the round in the challenge cup. Connacht a very strong side up front and can see them getting the better of Wasps in the scrum. Wasps will fair better at the line out and at the breakdown with Barclay leading the way. Connacht will play some exciting stuff, but the game is suited to Hodgson with his control and attack ability to start a move will see Wasps home in a tight game.
Wasps 30-24 Connacht
Weakened Connacht side and can see Wasps just sneaking a bonus point

Wasps 26 - 20 Connacht
Connacht weakened and Wasps put out a decent outfit. Good win aganst a tough side at home.
Wasps 33 - 14 Connacht
Connacht have played much stronger line ups than this during the season, as it is the Wasps side has far too much physicality up front, and I'd expect them to smash through and pick up a bonus point
Connacht 18 - 25 Wasps
Another tough game for Wasps but can see them getting some joy in Europe this season.
Wasps 32-20 Connacht
Connacht going really well of late but this is a good Wasps side with a good pack and sound set piece. Hodgson will pull the strings off a good platform and they'll get an easy win in the end.
Connacht 21-27 Wasps
London Wasps 42-41 Connacht
Wasps 26 - 24 Connacht
This is the best game of the round in the challenge cup. Connacht a very strong side up front and can see them getting the better of Wasps in the scrum. Wasps will fair better at the line out and at the breakdown with Barclay leading the way. Connacht will play some exciting stuff, but the game is suited to Hodgson with his control and attack ability to start a move will see Wasps home in a tight game.
Wasps 30-24 Connacht
Weakened Connacht side and can see Wasps just sneaking a bonus point
