Green background (rows 1 to 4) are play-off places. Qualification for the Heineken Cup is based on each country's allocation, i.e. three highest-ranked Irish teams, three highest-ranked Welsh teams, both Italian teams and both Scottish teams. Because Leinster won the 2012 Heineken Cup Final, Ireland earned an extra Heineken Cup place, which will go to Connacht. Aironi were denied a licence for the 2012–13 season due to financial issues; the newly established Zebre side replaced Aironi in the Pro12 and Heineken Cup.

gollark: Because a complex thing with many patents involved (I'm thinking video codecs and stuff here) would require licensing it from/dealing with tons of individual people.
gollark: Also, that would be nightmarish to deal with in some cases.
gollark: Or, well, on company time?
gollark: What about ideas developed in groups?
