Just watched the SC4 English commentary of Ospreys V Leinster.
Lacey was very poor.
A couple of times the Welsh commentator called Leinster peno and remarked that Mr Lacey obviously disagreed with him.
Given how one eyed the welsh commentators usually are that's some comment.
Pro12 refs need to come under a lot more scrutiny.
Ian Davies, apparently. :|

Marmion's cap count is incredible for a guy who's only gone 25.

The whole Connacht starting 15 have over 50 caps each. Don't think I've ever seen this at Provincial level before.

It's a big ask to get a win today but Cardiff may yet do us a favour. They're at home to the Ospreys at 14:45. If the Ospreys get anything less than a win, it really takes the pressure off us this evening.

Theres a very real prospect of Glasgow coming to town next week with very little to play for. If Ulster and Scarlets win it is more or less impossible for them to reach the knock out stages. Fingers Crossed!

Ian Davies in a yellow shirt very similar to our change strip. Could that not have been predicted?

No need for any TMO on that try. Great handling all round.

Shite conversion attempt though from Byrne.

Ross Molony very weak effort there to clear out Buckley. Byrne should've straightened up a bit though.

That proves Adam Byrne's hammer is grand.
