Benneton (46pts) 56 points
Edinburgh (H) 4 Connacht (A) 1 Leinster (A) 0 Munster (H) 1 Zebre (A) 4 Ulster (44pts) 55 points Dragons (A) 0 S. Kings (H) 5 Glasgow (A) 1 Edinburgh (A) 1 Leinster (H) 4 Edinburgh (42pts) 51 points Benneton (A) 1 Leinster (H) 4 Scarlets (A) 0 Ulster (H) 4 Glasgow (A) 0 Scarlets (41pts) 63 points Munster (H) 4 Blues (A) 4 Edinburgh (H) 5 Zebre (H) 5 Dragons (A) 4 I think we will be clear in 2nd by the time the final games come around and it will be the others fighting out for the 3rd and 4th spots. Luckily we have Edinburgh home the week after they play Munster in the Champions cup QFs , this could work in our favour as they will be pretty battered from this game and cant see them sending their 1st choice team down. Our away form is a concern but Arms park is normally like a home game for us, we take a load of support there. Dragons away is one I am a bit wary off, I know they got hammered last weekend but we always struggle against them in the Principality and they have put some improved performances in lately. Hopefully we have our welsh stars back again this weekend and then we should have enough to beat Munster , hopefully Tadgh wont be playing for them , him on his own is enough to beat anyone. |

Ulster get 0 points against the Drags? That will be some result for the Men of Gwent!

We're still still here, but I wish we were in an Anglo-Welsh

I agree with that Scarlets run in projection.
I see Benetton taking Edinburgh apart for a 5 pointer this weekend though.They are unbeaten in 7. Edited by Wil Chips - 25 February 2019 at 5:06pm |

Yeah I wavered over that one a bit, but I reckon they're due for a slip. |

That’s true as well...Edinburgh will figure that one as a must win after last weekend and a tough run in.

Treviso beat Leinster at the RDS at the end of last season. Once Leinster have the league in the bag they won’t be so focussed. Edited by SA14 - 26 February 2019 at 4:13pm |

Looking at all of the remaining teams run-ins, including ours, if we win them all, then we'll finish second I have no doubt at all.
Even with the season that we've had with injuries etc, I still think we're good enough for a Pro14 semi-final, and then who knows. Will be a good end to the season if we can finish on a positive and have half a chance of reaching the Pro14 final

Basically five wins and whatever way you work the other teams fixtures really we finish second. Four wins; still in with a good shout of second with bonus points, should get third regardless. Three wins; good shout of third with a very healthy collection of bonus points and providing we beat Edinburgh, fail to pick up bonus points and we have a disaster on our hands. Every game is a key game but I'm not too worried about the Zebra and Drags games. Munster - Need to win at all costs, anyway, anyhow!!! I'll take a 3-0! Cardiff - The one I'm most worried about. Win this and I think we fly the rest of the season. Doesn't matter if they get try bonus or losing bonus, we have to go at them! Edinburgh - Very similar situation to when we went to them last year. They'll either be realing from being knocked out or looking forward to a semi. Either way they'll be battered, their Scottish internationals are also going to have played a lot of rugby due to their gazzilion injuries. Could very well be if we beat them they are out of contention as I don't see them picking up more than a couple of points against Leinster and Benetton. Zebra and Dragons should be atleast 9 points - No excuses.

I wrote a piece yesterday for ScarletFever72, a relatively new website which focuses on all things Scarlets.

I've just purchased tickets for judgement day in U8 this morning available through Scarkets ticket office at £10 for season ticket holders. Last day of them being on sale through Scarlets at this price is today apparently. In case this is of interest to anyone. |

So Leinster beat the Cheetahs 19-7 (puts our score last week in
context) and have a 26 pt lead in Conference B, giving them a home
semi-final. So, what would you do if you were Schmidt, risk your
players in the last 4 fixtures, or back off a little? |

This could have huge ramifications for us if they were to rest key players in the remainder of the conference games. They play all of our challengers for a playoff place and only play 1 fixture against a team from the other conference in Munster.
We just have to win all our remaining fixtures. |
