Toulon 23-21 Bath
Toulon has the better forwards a decent set of backs and some good subs.

Biarritz 24-19 Stade
Biarritz forwards are dominant which wins them the game.

Saracens 17–16 Tigers
Sarries have front row advantage. Locks are about equal while the back row goes to Tigers. Overall I think Tigers have slightly better forwards. Half backs slightly to Tigers. Sarries take the centres and back three. Both have decent subs but home advantage edges it to Sarries.

Ospreys 29–25 Leinster
Leinsters back row means that Ospreys only edge the forwards in my mind. Backs also go to Ospreys and they run out winner

Saints 19-27 Toulouse
Toulouse are just dominant

Cheers dude, much obliged...almost there now

WEEK 11 FINAL RESULTS:

Toulon 24 Bath 27
Many would argue that the signing of AAC and his new partnership with Giteau made the difference here. Toulon came very close, but the stellar names in key positions for the Bath side meant they came away with the win and continued their great form

Stade 25 Biarritz 29
Boosted with the signing of Steyn, Biarritz's back three showed the signs of class that the forwards had been crying out for in previous weeks. Whilst Stade competed admirably up front, BO won the contest at half back

Highlanders 31 Clermont 18
Clermont struggled to compete with the Scots in most areas and succumbed to loss away from home.

Saracens 27 Leicester 20
Buoyed by the signing of Owen Franks, Sarries competed in the pack and edged a win with home advantage.

Ospreys 31 Leinster 24
In a tightly contested match, it was the front 5 that won this battle for the Ospreys. Leinster dominated the break down with their stellar back row, but this game was finished with the hard running former crusaders midfield combo.

Northampton 18 Toulouse 31
Toulouse win again etc etc

HUGE WIN FOR BATH!
