Another week where everything that could go wrong, did. As Gloucester lost at home to a talented Toulon side, Castres recorded a rare away victory at Thomond Park to condemn the Cherry and Whites and ignominious exit from all European competition.
Meanwhile we got news of arrivals and departures for next season and how the pack is clearly the focus for recruitment.
Finally despite all the trials and tribulations at Kingsholm, spare a thought for supporters of Ospreys as their demise looks almost certain following news of the Y11 group (current owners of Ospreys) getting preferred bidder status for Cardiff Blues.
