Stade Francais may appear to be Parisian show ponies with their Andy Warhol-inspired kit but are top of the French league and possess Australian rugby league convert Mark Gasnier and Argentine star Juan Martin Hernandez. Harlequins - no strangers to colourful shirts themselves - are playing an attractive brand of rugby with the likes of Ugo Monye (left) but are without injured duo Nick Evans and David Strettle, and European glory looks a step too far at the moment. The Scarlets, soon to bid farewell to the fabled Stradey Park, are going well in the Magners League and bolstered their pack with Wallaby number eight David Lyons.

Bottom of the Magners League, it would be a huge surprise if they make the last eight.  The BBC is not responsible for the content of external internet sites |
