Toulouse do it for the third time.

Eleventh time it’s been done

Toulouse - 1996, 2021, 2024
Leicester - 2001, 2002
Saracens - 2016, 2019
Wasps - 2004
Toulon - 2014
Leinster - 2018
Exeter - 2020

Interesting that it seems a lot easier to do the double in France and England. Kind of puts to bed the whole thing about the URC being an easy league.

But strong evidence regarding the URC not being taken seriously enough by the best team :angel:

The comment hints at an inferiority complex. I expect a south African team will manage it within the next 10 years.
