2024 Investec Champions Cup Rugby Pool 2 Outlook
Pool 2 features a star-studded group of players.
From Toulouse's Antoine DuPont to a pair of South African Internationals in Steven Kitshoff (Ulster) and Siya Kolisi (Racing 92), Pool 2 has no shortage of talent.
Toulouse is the headliner of the group as the defending Top 14 champions and is one of the best European professional clubs of all-time. Toulouse won the Champions Cup in 2021 and have one five times since 1996 with two more runner-up finishes.
This pool also features Cardiff Rugby, which wouldn't have qualified for the Champions Cup under the new qualification system going into effect for next year's tournament. Cardiff finished outside the top eight of the United Rugby Championship in 2023, but won the Welsh shield, which put them in the 2023-2024 Champions Cup.
