There is a French theme to Will Greenwood's favourite five this week as Munster's trip to Paris, Montpellier's victory over Bordeaux-Begles and Richard Cockerill's arrival in Toulon all feature.
Munster were in the French capital for the rearranged Champions Cup clash against Racing 92 over the weekend. The game was postponed in October following the tragic passing of Munster coach Anthony Foley, and the Racing fans showed enormous respect for Foley as well as Munster's support base on Saturday.
Rassie Erasmus' men capped off an emotional weekend with a victory as they continued their impressive run of form. The success came with a four-try bonus point, with one try scored in trademark fashion by CJ Stander - and celebrated passionately by Peter O'Mahony.
There was another trademark try in France as Fijian flyer Nemani Nadolo dotted down in familiar style during Montpellier's win over Bordeaux-Begles.
In the south of France Richard Cockerill landed at Toulon with the aim to help the struggling former European champions, who were humbled 30-6 by Clermont Auvergne on Sunday. The loss puts Toulon seventh in the Top 14 - can Cockerill turn things around?
