Can someone actually outline what's going on?
Where will the 2nd place cut be?

As things stand:

Lei 23
ASM 18
RCT 18
Uls 17
Mun 16

Sca 17
ASR 16
Osp 15

A lot will change next week no doubt. Reckon 18/19 is the number to make the QF.

A derogatory term which also means a bundle of sticks.

Never wrestle with a pig. You end up covered in muck and the pig loves it.

I'd say Sarries will be a cert to finish on 18 and sneak in. Hopefully they will have to go to Aviva.

Max points possible for 2nd place team:

Group 1 - 21
Group 2- 20 although extremely unlikely would take spreys to take 5 points and Clermont only 2.
Group 3 - 19
Group 4 - 20
Group 5 - 20 again unlikely as it would take Toulon to get 2 bonus points.

Short story is if Ulster win without a bp they will be 6th seeds and play away to 3rd seeds. If Ulster win with bp they will top group and get 4th seed and home qf.

I'd agree, Leinster need just one point to guarantee top seed, even if they don't achieve that at worst case Clermont can draw level with them on points. Even then they have quite a healthy points for / against differential.

Worryingly if we fail to win but pick up some sort of bonus point it could be us going to Aviva.
