    Any good play from Connacht is being closely followed by really poor play. Particularly from the loose forwards and Marmion. It's the difference at the moment.

    Wouldn't be blaming Marmion so much sloppy ball coming back

    Frustratingly sloppy play at times. Patterson is inconsistent. Carr TOH an Henshaw Are playing well

    No intensity in the clear out of the rucks, getting done for holding on far too often!

    Happy with the score considering.

    That's a part of it, but he's dong himself no favours. Some of the decisions he's making have put Connacht under huge pressure. Also you have to wonder who is directing those forwards behind the breakdown, they seem to be all over the place.

    Pathetic tackling


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators, Regional West Moderators Posts: 6,773 Mod ✭✭✭✭connemara man


    Ridiculous defending shocking stuff


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,818 ✭✭✭Inspector Coptoor


    Scarlet's will get the BP now.

    Disappointing


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,019 ✭✭✭Cosmo Kramer


    Hopeless tackling from O'Halloran and Griffin during that move.

    Priestland is stand out awful even at Pro 12 level, you'd have to wonder how he ever got into the Welsh national team setup.

    Well done robbie and TOH


  • Registered Users Posts: 45,433 ✭✭✭✭thomond2006


    Connacht playing some nice stuff!


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,442 ✭✭✭its_phil


    Scarlets hooker clearly popped up there


  • Registered Users Posts: 663 ✭✭✭Funk It


    Crooked drive there from the Scarlets LH I thought


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,069 ✭✭✭✭wp_rathead


    Touch judge should have seen the Scarlets prop burrowing there - he been at it all match


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators, Regional West Moderators Posts: 6,773 Mod ✭✭✭✭connemara man


    We're not getting any of the tight calls. Need to play in the scarlets half more and the tackling needs to improve


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,442 ✭✭✭its_phil

    Not being able to have a line out maul has hurt us.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators, Regional West Moderators Posts: 6,773 Mod ✭✭✭✭connemara man


    We really are trying to force it too much


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,442 ✭✭✭its_phil


    Into the corner and maul. But Scarlets might not engage although it it is 5m

  • Registered Users Posts: 1,318 ✭✭✭Absoluvely


    Gorgeous try at the end of an extremely long play!


  • Registered Users Posts: 45,433 ✭✭✭✭thomond2006
