Luke Fitzgerald: Beating Toulon could be our biggest win ever

The province may have three Heineken Cups under their belt, but if they were to overcome Toulon in the Stade Velodrome on Sunday, Leinster winger Luke Fitzgerald believes it would be their biggest ever win in European competition.

The Blackrock College man recalled their Heineken Cup semi-final victory against Munster in 2009 as a memorable accomplishment but believes defeating mighty Toulon could surpass that.

“Yeah, I think so [it would be the biggest],” said Fitzgerald. “Clermont in 2012 probably springs to mind in terms of something that’s similar for us. But I think given that these guys [Toulon] are two-times champions, that’s probably why it trumps it.
