Looking forwards to going to all 3 away games ,I was disappointed not to make the Claremont game this season due to poor travel options.I believe we have a chance to progress from the pool.

Leinster should win Pool 1. I'd say it'll come down to the individual games between Exeter and Glasgow in Pool 2, with LBPs being all important.
There's a chance of us doing well in Pool 3. Probably best to look at 2nd, as I think Clermont will win. It'll depend when Ulsters' home games are. If they're played on a wet & windy Friday night, they tend to do better.
I can see only one team getting out of Pool 4, as the top 3 of them should all be targeting each other That would mean that the runner-up may have less points than runners up in the other pools. Sarries will have the belief that they can do it, but Munster will target this heavily, as will Racing. Can't tell who's going to win that pool.
Pool 5 should be a fairly easy walk for Toulouse, I think. If Gloucester can get some good scores against Connacht and Montpellier, I' can see them qualifying for the knockout stages.

Home quarter and semi final for leinster then.

Pretty happy with our pool. Not the most exciting away games, but probably as good as we could have hope for given our ranking

OK, interesting pool.  But (with respect to Bath) when will we know which weekends for Ulster and Clermont away?

Not for another month at least, as they've now got to go to the broadcast partners to see if there's any specific requirements each of them has. They'll also be trying to make the R3/R4 back to back games as tasty as possible We'll find out dates and timings for R1-R4 probably mid August, and R5/R6 not til after R4 has been completed.

I’m sorry, FF, but that is just too much thought. :)
