    Munster will need to beat Scarlets if Cardiff win their remaining two matches: Ospreys in PS and Edinburgh away.

    "The Musgrave".

    I think the PR bunnies will be having a word with Conway about that. What a kick though.

    That seems a bit ridiculous. Munster didn't make the line and couldn't get the ball back. That's a turnover all day long. If I was an Edinburgh fan I'd be hugely pissed off about that.

    So, with one game left to play out of 22, Munster could still win the Pro 12 or might not even qualify for the Champions Cup. Incredible.

    It will be close. No Fitzgerald starting for Leinster is massive. He's by far their best back.

    Let's remember what yon Saxon foe keep repeating: the Pro12 isn't competitive.

    There's less than 3 wins between first and 6th in the league, in the English and French leagues it's 3 wins between 1st and 4th in the league, taking standard of play out of the equation it could be said that the Pro12 is a far more competitive league.

    It's been a stunning season so far. It had everything, highs, lows, controversial decisions, tension, relief, hope, despair...

    It's like game of thrones with more blood but less nudity

    Always find it strange when people nitpick about this. Colloquially they're often called rules. Fair enough, really.

    Munsster fans now become massive Dragons/Ospreys fans

    Ospreys win with a BP tomorrow and they're not out of it either (in fact just a win and they're not out of it). Munster really need to beat Scarlets next week.

    Standard here tonight was shocking. I knew Edinburgh would be woeful, thought Munster would have been a bit better though. Still, did was required.

    Enjoyed that match last night, but Munster made heavy weather of that. Great to get the BP. Team made a lot of errors, but worked hard and thoroughly deserved the win. Crowd was brilliant.

    Edinburgh are woeful but are still capable of scoring if defensive errors let them. That was as much a must win game for them as it was for Munster and they didn't give up without a fight. Under pressure and with the result going against them they were undisciplined and pretty much gave Munster tha upper hand but they were in shouting distance of a win as well.

    An entertaining game and job done for Munster, still have Scarlets to make it certain though. It would have been gutting if we didn't have all four provinces in the Champions Cup. So well done Munster, onwards and upwards. :)

    Poor enough game from both teams and the ref, he goes missing at times. We were lucky not to have a man carded at scrum time. We took our tries well but let Edinburgh have way too much ball. I thought our defence was better but we gifted them their try, not a finger laid on him. I expected Edinburgh to score at least another try but thankfully they opted for kick at the posts rather than going for the corner.

    Good to see Conway get MotM but CJ was my winner, he had a great game.

    Great win and more of the same next week guarantees us Champions Cup rugby next season.

    Setanta are showing the game Monday night. S4C often show games on a Mon/Tues night but seeing as there's no Welsh team involved they prob. won't show this one.
