While international rugby is in the limelight, action continues in the domestic leagues around Europe.
Celtic League champions Ulster have a one point lead ahead of Welsh side Llanelli Scarlets, who have a game in hand. Heineken Cup champions Munster currently sit one place from the bottom of the Magners league with a lot of work to do to ensure qualification for the 2007/08 Heineken Cup.
European Challenge Cup champions, Gloucester Rugby share the lead in the Guinness Premiership with Bristol Rugby. London Wasps and Sale Sharks currently hold third and fourth places repectively.
Stade Francais Paris started the 2006/07 season in blistering form leading the Top 14 by eight points ahead of Clermont Ferrand, with Biarritz and Toulouse trailing the leaders by 12 and 13 points.
It's tight at the top of the Italian Super 10 with Benetton Treviso, Calvisano and Petracra Padova all on 22 points after six games.
