Wales Online's Delme Parfitt answers questions on the Welsh sides' Heineken Cup performance.
"With another Heineken Cup pool campaign over, Delme Parfitt answers the key questions about the performances of the Blues, Ospreys and Scarlets in Europe’s elite competition, and assesses what it might mean for Wales’ Six Nations campaign
Q: Should we be happy with having one of our regions in the quarter-finals?
DP: Well, if we’d been offered that scenario at the start of the campaign we may well have accepted it given the blank we drew last time out, but there’s something of a flat feel about it all because few will give the Blues much hope of progress away to Leinster in the last eight.
The Ospreys’ failure, not to mention the manner of it, also leaves a very bitter taste.
It says it all that the Scarlets, in beating Castres on French soil and securing an Amlin Challenge Cup quarter-final berth, probably came out of the final weekend with the most credit.”
