CHALENGE CUP QUARTER FINAL DRAW

HARLIQUINS V LONDON IRISH

GLOSTER V DRAGONS

MY OPINION
There are some good teams in the Challenge cup that I think could go far in the European Cup next season Like Sale, Harlequin's or Grenoble but the fact that only 2 p0ro 12 teams reached the quarters does not bake me disagree with what I had said before.
