We have a huge 4 months coming up. From now until the end of May is going to produce something special.

We are still in 3 competitions, we all know how good we CAN be in knock out cups, young guys like Foxy, Rhys and North are performing, and we are building some fantastic strength in depth within the squad. Let's hope we get the run of the green with regards to injuries for the last few months of this season now.

The team know exactly what is required to win, and win emphatically at Northampton, and then who knows, cup final time in Coventry with 15,000 Scarlets fans behind the team......!

We've already been to France many times and won, and we've been to France this year where most pundits wrote us off, and the young team produced the performance of their lives with their backs against the wall to claim a stunning win, yet again in France. After getting over the Brive hurdle, it's the real big time then, and who knows... With the confidence running through every member of the squad, a big following in Adams Park or at San Sebastian, anything could happen.

It would also be fair to say that we are somewhat dark horses in the Pro12, and all this becomes real on Thursday night when we take on Glasgow who are in 4th. Win this one, and it could be the springboard to maintain a place in the top 4, and then we're in to knockout rugby again.

This is going to be epic boys. Strap yourselves in, because it is going to undoubtedly be a roller coaster ride, but we are on the brink of something special.

Start dreaming. Ymlaen y Scarlets. Clap

Big learning curve ahead this year with knockout rugby.

I Don't think we will get it right every time, especially with every game away from home, but hopefully this will give us a trophy and the experience to go hammer and tongs for the heineken next season!

If we hold on to the players and learn from our defeats and our successes this year we can only go on to bigger things next season.

The LV final is on the 18th March Sunday at Worcester, the day after the final game of the 6N, Wales playing France at the MS. That it is why it is at Worcester and hence why 15000 is very ambitious!! Memory serves me right we only took 13000+ to the Walkers for the HC semi against Tigers!!

TF 15,000 is very ambitious when the ground only holds 12,000 do you think the other team may want a couple of seats.

I know Baz I was just trying to break it gently to Alun. This is a huge opportunity for the fringe squad members to win silverware before their more experienced team mates who will be on International duty having won the Grand Slam the day before!!!Thumbs Up

We will be in the final, no choice now anyway, as I've already booked the flights.

Winning is great, the only person who can say defeat is good is Nelson Mandella's chiropadist.

Weeeeell, I thought it was in Coventry. No worries, we'll sell out of our allocation anyway.
