On the eve of the Amlin Challenge Cup Final, Stade Francais flanker James Haskell has admitted winning the competition would mean everything to the club.

The French side face Harlequins at the Cardiff City Stadium tomorrow evening and Haskell is looking to finish the season on a high and bring some silverware back to Paris.

“Winning the Amlin Cup Final would mean absolutely everything to us,” said the England International.

“It’s so important to us for any number of reasons.

“We are a club who only look and feel right when we are playing in the Heineken Cup and that is the tournament we always aim for.

“Tomorrow is another chance at reaching that competition.

“It would be wonderful to win the Amlin for Max (Guazzini) as he never managed to win the Heineken Cup.

“As a team when you win silverware it unites you with your team-mates forever but we know that we are up against a very good Harlequins side.

“We have had a look at the stadium today and it’s great. The pitch is perfect and I’m sure there is going to be a great atmosphere for the game.”
