Munster have surely landed the toughest draw of all.
The 2016/17 draw for the Champions Cup pool stages has thrown up some absolute whoppers.
Champions Saracens have been drawn with Toulon, the 2014 and 2015 champions, while Leinster will be quietly confident of emerging from Pool 4.
Munster are in with Racing 92, who have Ronan O'Gara as defence coach, Glasgow Warriors and Leicester Tigers.
Connacht, meanwhile, have a tricky couple of foes in Toulouse and Wasps but they will be punching the fresh, west coast air at landing Zebre.
Ulster are in Pool 5 with heavyweights, and European Cup bridesmaids, Clermont, up-and-coming Exeter and big-spending Bordeaux-Beglés.
As for Leinster, they will come up against familiar foes in Northampton Saints, Castres and Montpellier.
