- 2704
With the World Cup finished, Round 1 of the Champions & Challenge Cup could not come at a better time. In just over 1 week Europe's premier club competition will get underway with some cracking match ups and fixtures.
Jonny Gray, having just signed a new deal with Glasgow Warriors and being named club captain, had this to say
"Everyone is really excited by the draw, but we all know just how tough all the games are going to be. The fact we will find ourselves playing against such world stars as Victor Matfield (Saints) and Dan Carter (Racing 92) in our pool just shows the quality of players in the tournament,"
