The 3rd day of the Rugby Challenge Cup and Champions Cup took place this weekend. We talked about Vannes' defeat against Edinburgh. But among the lessons of the day, we will remember for the Champions Cup the total domination of Stade Toulousain and UBB, who put on the tests, the bonuses, and who impressed. Behind, Leinster seems to be holding up, but a tone below recent years. Leicester isn't bad either, just like Northampton, Munster, Saracens or Stade Rochelais, but it still seems a level lower.
In the Challenge Cup, Edinburgh, Connacht and Montpellier seem to be the three teams that dominate. To be continued, but this should give a good home stretch.
Here are all the matches for next week, last group match
