       We are pretty certain of Top 6 , and one point guarantees it .
       Even if we get no points Sharks have to beat Glaws by 60 odd
       points to overtake us .
       We need to win ( or get 2 points) and hope Chiefs do the job on
       Saints
       Not ideal to finish 6th and get lowest seeding but Id have
       bitten your hand off for that last Sept !

       Whatever happens tomorrow this season has certainly been a
       massive improvement on the last.

       @CQ  - I'm not sure that you are correct. If Sale win with BP
       and we get nothing, then we will both be on 55 points - but,
       Sale will have 11 wins.  Therefore, they will overtake us.
       Basically, we need 1 point to guarantee 6th place.
       7th place would be enough to guarantee us Champions cup next
       year though as long as La Rochelle win one of their last 2
       matches.  7th place may still be enough though even if La
       Rochelle lose both.

       Fair point NS , I know  we needed 1 point and was happy with
       that , anyway , I will now be easily recognisable at the Ricoh
       tomorrow in my Chiefs Headdress , Glaws Scarf , Quins shirt ,
       cheering at random times when I see scores on my phone .

       Baring in mind that sarries are playing worcester and with
       therefore likely get a bonus point win that means exeter must
       get at least 2 points to guarantee top spot.

       Indeed - I mis-read the table - LinkinQuin is correct! Apols.

       It goes to show how tight the competition is this season. Coming
       up to the final game and still many possible permutations.
