The group will be dominated by Munster but other than its a great bunch of teams to come up against for our youngsters...real testers, great for development. I'm starting to feel the probable benefits of this tournament. |

Two miles from Kingston on Thames, Surrey, I used to work there, and it's a trip I will look forward to as a few of my ex colleagues used to play for them.

Forgot to mention that Esher is also the home of Kempton Park (of horse racing fame)

Anyone fancy a trip to Bristol?
A tough away game in munster, that will truly show how far our youngsters have come |

i think they're a bit of a yo-yo club. went to watch css play for exeter against them in the championship 2 years ago (its not far from twickenham). ironically, css is playing for esher now so he'll be playing against us again in december |
