    Well no, Ulster finished ahead of Ospreys. If both those teams win the Ulster will play at home. Ospreys are the only side who can't have home advantage in the final.

    Edit: Oh wait you're talking about their stadium capacity, right? Sorry, never mind me..

    Pretty sure the 18,000 limit was set so that Leinster could host the final in the RDS.

    Celtic Rugby have various expenses. There is a prizepool that they fund ect and they pay administration expenses too. So I suppose their budget is what we are talking about.
