I though the final was a cracking advert for weight grade rugby.
The forwards were just colossal. I don’t think it’s sustainable.
Indeed.
There was a time when rugby league forwards and rugby union forwards were starting to look similar.
Not anymore.

I would pick Saracens to win comfortably enough vs the Crusaders on English soil, probably the reverse in Chch. But if you felt the Sharks forwards went well enough in Chch, Saracens is a step up.
Yeah - though to be fair adding Owen Franks and Sam Whitelock to the Crusaders'starting pack vs the Sharks is also a step up.
Not to mention adding Mo'unga, Crotty and Havili to the backs - and some adjustments to the bench.

Captain Kaino lifts his first domestic trophy, poor bastard after 15 (? I think) years with the blues! But good on him, a great generational player, we still miss him!
"Toulouse celebrated a record 20th title - seven years after their first triumph." Editorial brilliance, 20 titles in 7 years....

Just a word on Pita Ahki. He was signed as a journeyman to be 5th choice to play 12-13 (in fact we didn't know why he was signed) and after several injuries he got his chance and he's been stunning. He's probably the biggest surprise in this french rugby season, a great value for money.
