Round 1 Reaction
"The first half was quite fluid and we actually got what we wanted out of it but the second half was a bit stop-start and the injury to our prop (Anton Peikrishvili) slowed things down a little bit and we couldn't get going. We were playing with 14, them having two yellow cards and it's a difficult to get rhythm, uncontested scrums as well but what is pleasing is we still managed to get the bonus-point win.’’
Josh Turnbull, Cardiff Blues No 8 - Cardiff Blues 29-19 Lyon
"I'm proud of the lads. It was a good performance in that second half and I'm glad that we have not lost at home so I'm pretty chuffed really. I suppose we have got to be happy with a draw in the end. We didn't play particularly well in the first half but I thought we adapted well after the break. They didn't look like scoring in the second half and with the rub of the green on a couple of decisions we might have sneaked it. We are good at home and the challenge for us now is to go to Lyon next week and put in another performance like that against a side that are top of the French league. Our ambition is to get to the next stage of the competition. To do that you have to win your homes games so we need to pick up something away from home next week."
Steve Diamond, Sale Sharks Director of Rugby - Sale Sharks 20-20 Toulouse
“We were inaccurate in certain areas, we had four new starters in key positions and that does make a difference. Perhaps we tried to push it a little too much at times. The Dragons aren’t a bad side and we handed them a few chances, plus we didn’t capitalise on a few of our own. Ordinarily we wouldn’t do that, but we pulled through in the end and just about got the job done.”
Dean Richards, Newcastle Falcons Director of Rugby - Newcastle Falcons 32-27 Dragons
"We scored three nice tries in the first half. We got a little static in the second half and sat back a bit, but in the end we scored another two tries and it was a good impact from the guys. It's good to get guys game-time and for me as a new coach it gives me the opportunity to see them playing, see how they operate. There was some really good handling, we're starting to actually play ball in hand, we're starting to threaten teams, which is important."
Richard Cockerill, Edinburgh Rugby Head Coach - London Irish 14-37 Edinburgh Rugby
“Really pleased, a long time coming. It’s great for us, a new competition the Challenge Cup, gives us another aspiration. We are disappointed about our narrow losses obviously, but you can’t turn it back, so looking forward is what we are all about. The challenge is for us to back it up. The changing room was indicative, a noisy little session, nobody with their heads down – that is the momentum we were searching for, so foolish not to make use of it.”
Kieran Keane, Connacht Rugby Head Coach - Oyonnax 15-43 Connacht Rugby
