Global Results - 16 January 2011
This is the second last round of the pool matches in the Heineken Cup and the Amlin Challenge Cup. After next week end eight teams from each competition will go through to that competition’s quarterfinals.
Leinster, Northampton Saints, Toulon and Toulouse are certain of quarterfinal places leaving battles for two sets of three teams each – Bath, Biarritz and Ulster and Perpignan Scarlets and Leicester Tigers. Two sides rated best of the second-places sides in each pool will take the other two places in the quarterfinals. There are still venues to decide.
In the Amlin Challenge Cup Brive and Stade Français are in the quarterfinals.
And Melbourne Rebels had their first match ever – the start of a new Super Rugby side.
