Start your day with five eye-catching egg-chasing quotes & links from around the ruggersphere.

I'm sure the Bundee Aki hearing
will be technically "independent" but

Aki who has had a frustrating time at Connacht this season was very vocal to the referee during the derby match with Leinster


Sean Flynn - SportsNews Ireland



It’s safe to say that if Ulster are to reach the semi-finals, Les Kiss and his coaching staff will have to mastermind some pretty impressive back-to-back victories.


Sean McMahon - Pundit Arena



The one thing even the English and French clubs may concede is the importance of the Irish to the competition with the crowds they bring.


Andy Howell - WalesOnline



Saracens showed their ability to soak up pressure, rebound and work harder than the opposition to manufacture a superb team try.


Murray Kinsella - The42.ie
