The Top 14 France 2013/14 season is still throwing up the surprises. The biggest being new boys Oyonnax who sit fifth in the table. Paris are having a better start than usual and it will be quite something if they can mainatin the momentum. Meanwhile Toulouse and Clermont are erratic which gives hope to the minnows. All to early in the season to call and expect the usual guys to be there come the business end of the season however Montpellier are looking a strong bet for the play-offs at least.
