So if we make it to the Semis would we get Twickingham?

need a 5 pointer to have a chance of a home QF so what do we go
for? Rest a few or go for broke? For me it’s a chance to start
with Green, Care and maybe Dombrandt on the bench. What do you
think?

Green has played so many minutes I'd rest him and possibly Care
on the bench. Might be good to give Walker a rest too and see
what Riley can do from the start. We can still field a strong
side especially with Esterhuizen coming back

NOT if we are playing an Irish team. 60,000 of them and 20k of
us!

I think there were only 50k there that day, but the principle
and proportions are about right. My wife and infant son caught
whooping cough from someone in the crowd that day. Not a
pleasant experience - especially because doctors now see it so
rarely it took them several weeks to diagnose him.

Clearly you were not there, I had my own seat which the Club
kindly allocated surrounded by 000s of Munster supporters - I
could see 2 or 3 other Quins supporters two rows down and that
was it in AF - hopefully never to be repeated.

I got offered £100 for my £28 ticket that day and although I did
the decent thing from a Quins perspective, so many didn't. I
don't agree with it but, sadly, am sure it would happen again.

I'm in FD so opposite you and it really looked like the East
stand was the Munster one that day, heaven knows how they did
it. The club said there was going to be an investigation but it
all went quiet

Yes I was shocked when the teams ran out and it was like a
Munster home game. I know of several Quins supporters who are
Irish and got as many tickets as they could for them and family
to support Munster that day. If I remember correctly, each team
was allocated so many tickets each and then there were all the
corporate ones for dignitaries etc. The ERC was based in Dublin
and was almost entirely run by Irish people so I’ve no idea how
so many tickets can have found their way into Munster hands.
At least this won’t happen with the French.
