    That's an interesting choice of clearance!

    Connacht can't keep spending this much time in their own 22. It will lead to disaster, especially with a player as poor as o'leary at 10

    Idiotic from O'Leary. Silly thing to do when they were flying.

    Connacht are playing mad stuff, it's like they're playing by a different set of rules. The Harlem Bogtrotters

    It's how the game is being played. Both sides are superb to watch in attack but aren't great defensively and Grenoble are downright abysmal without the ball.

    Grenoble score an average 25 points a game in the T14.....but somehow manage to concede an average of 27!

    For context, Treviso have a better defence than that.

    Soon to be Grenoble 13-19 Connacht. Poor enough scoreboard from a Connacht point of view given what they've done this half.

    And restart out on the full, really imploding here just before half time.

    Fair enough, but I meant just on Wiesnieski as he waltzed through. So annoying to see such poor missed tackles.

    Connacht cannot concede penalties in their own half. Wisniewski is a proper outhalf who can kick quite well and run a back line.

    He's like a French version of Gopperth.
