    No yellow there - did he say it was because he'd just given them one?

    Yeah aki would have gotten a yellow for not rolling away I think. Connacht would have preferred oleary getting yellow than him. Fairly marginal penalty tho.

    They both agreed it was high - careless but high. The yellow was for persistent fouling which I think is fair enough

    You're allowed to tackle around the shoulder. It was nowhere near the neck.

    If Ulster don't score now Connacht should be awarded the win.

    This is pathetic refereeing.

    All the offences by ulster in 1st half and no cards and now handing them out like confetti in last 3 minutes.

    Fabulous Connacht defence yet again. Incredible stuff.

    Ulster don't deserve the BP.

    Great defence from connacht. But ulster seemed scared to look for the space.

    Why the hell didn't Marshall send that 50m down the field rather than the tame chip box kick?

    Great stuff from Connacht. Leinster appreciate it.

    That rip by Henshaw was amazing, and to zip a pass out for an attack with 2 men down is brilliant to watch.

    That's just awful From Ulster.

    Crap decision making at the base and crap execution. Theyve the best collection of backs in Ireland and refuse to spin it wide even when they have a two man advantage. Don't deserve a bonus point from this game.

    Paul Marshall is absolutely rubbish. He is too slow and it allowed Connacht to reset there between every phase. Rubbish.

    Ah, Ulster. Turnover ball inside the opposition 22, two men up and you still can't get it over.

    Ulster are brainless. They seem to be trying to play an Ireland type game but without the players to do it to any great effect. I'm an ulster man but have no problem recognising that despite tonight (injuries, 6 day turnaround) the men from the west are much better than us.
