    I'd just like to say that Rugby Union is a great sport and I hope Toulouse wins the Heineken Cup. We talk about French football teams doing bad in Europe well in Rugby European competiions the French do a lot better.

    One of the reasons they can do so well is places like Germany,Italy and Spain teams are really bad and the game isn't as popuar there. I remember reading that prior to the '98 World Cup Rugby and soccer were almost equal in terms of popularity in France. After the '98 World Cup soccer surged ahead and remains #1 currently.
