We're either really clinical or Connachts' defence is shocking, I think its more the latter unfortunately!

Cronin has an instant impact! Josh and Ross M great in that move to the try also. Now stitch that conversion Byrne. Good man!

Great game so far from van de F

Ref seems to be giving a lot of decisions to the home team

Game still ours for the taking

Disappointing to lose Kearney after an incident which seemed to occur miles from the ball

Will have to consult the laws don't fully understand some of the interpretations of the ref here

Josh is my MoM. Interestingly he wasn't subbed off yet. Not sure that's saying you might make the bench for next week- keep going! Or...

Leavy puts in a huge one last week, so of course Josh has to put in a massive shift this week!
