If Munster overcome Stade de France they will play the winners of the Wasps/Gloucster game at home.....
At last home advantage in the semis....bout time too....
excellent
Absolutely cracking draw....totally eliminates any chance of us playing English opposition at Twickenham should we get to the final.Seeing as the other semi will probably be between Toulouse and Llanelli, then I predict a Munster Heineken Cup victory at long last...with Christy Cullen and Seamus Williams doing some serious damage along the way!!
big word in that first post is "IF", love to see them do it, but its a very very big if..
Ignore Max Power, he is no more, the future is Ron Burgundy. I'd love to be Ron Burgundy but they won't let me........
they've come close so often, it's about time that the fixtures lined up in their favour
It was heartbreak in the two lost finals.
The crowd in Twickenham was fantastic.
Even though Northampton Saints had only to travel a few miles Munster out numbered them and completely out sung them.
The craic in The Stoop before hand was mighty.
Met people I hadn't seen in years.
Have Boot Disk, will travel
That Semi will have to played in lansdowne (unless the GAA let the use one of their grounds)
ERC rules say that grounds for the Semi have to hold a minumum of 20,000

They played a World Cup game at Thomond before with about 20,,000 there...
The game has to be at a 'neutral' venue so it can't be at one of their designated 'home' grounds which would be Thomond and Musgrave.Originally posted by Neil

We're not arrogant, we're just better.
And also 50 miles from their "home" ground I think...Originally posted by Schumi

If you attack me with stupidity, I'll be forced to defend myself with sarcasm.
for once Rovers would be at an advantage if they were a rugby team.......

Didn't take long for this thread to spring up, now did it? I was in Stats class 2 hours ago when the brother texted me the draw. Nearly let some roar. Great to get a home semi. Lansdowne should be jammers with a cracking atmosphere if we make it.Originally posted by NorthoftheLee

Agree with the sentiment, bout time some luck came our way.
Munster 33-6 Gloucester
Aint revenge sweet?!
Nice draw for Munster. I think they get fired up more for the Games against English opposition.
They have to be very short odds to make the final now with essentially 2 home draws. Would predict big crowd if semi in Landsdowne.
Be a full house in Lansdowne no doubt about it. I'd be confident about making the Final, but not overly so. The two teams we have to beat are the two most likely to win it other than ourselves. Btw, I've got a spare ticket for the Stade Francais match.Originally posted by pete

What is the date/time/channel of our next match?
Cheers,

1/4 Final 10/11 April i think.
As long as game played in Ireland RTE will have the rights i presume.
After criticising Skys rugby commentary the previous week then realised how truelly dire Jim Sheridan is on RTE.
