    Stupid decision to kick.

    Connacht are really crippling themselves with some of these kicks.

    Meanwhile, in Clancy-world, it#s now legal to jackal by placing your hands on the ground past the player and raking them back to get on the ball... if you're a Scarlets player, of course.

    Clear penalty. He tackled a man who wasn't a part of play. Cool it lads. You may not like how he's reffed the game so far but that doesn't mean every one of his calls needs to be questioned.

    Barclay clearly ran across the back of the ruck to prevent players joining it. That and taking players out off the ruck are 2 of my biggest big bears on open play these days.

    Some great tackling there by Connacht - Healy! And ultimately Muldoon puts and end to the attack. Great stuff.

    Unreal tackles there from Muldoon, Aki and Healy before a great turnover from Muldoon.

    Brilliant defence.

    True. Carty does more bad than good in nearly every game. With this game so tight he can't be relied on to nail a last minute penalty or conversion.

    As great as Jonathan Davies is at picking lines he's actually a pretty bad passer when running with the ball. A huge weakness for a centre.

    This is so infuriating, they screw up nearly every single attack.

    We hardly kicked at all last year. WTF is Carty at?

    You can tell that this is a game between two sides low in confidence. Error strewn would be an understatement.

    Watching all the error's you'd think the Connacht players had never played in the rain before.

    Should have been a turnover pen to Connacht. Aki was all over that.

    That line breaking pass looked clearly forward.

    That's twice Marmion has been charged down now.

    Try saving tackle from TOH to make up for his own knock on that led to the chance. And Connacht mess up the clearance yet again.

    Some tackle from TOH but Marmion trying his best to keep Llanelli in it with kicks like that.

    That's a try surely. What can the ref be checking?

    That was too easy. Connacht players too busy appealing to the match officials while the Scarlets just played on.

    Criminal there, not clearing our lines = giving Scarlets that try.
