    Connacht going to have a long afternoon up against that Toulouse scrum. Better not knock on much.

    6-0 down.

    Need to avoid scrums although that second scrum was better than the first.

    We seem to kick out on the full from kick offs a lot. That's a killer against a scrum like this!!

    Connacht not helping themselves with silly knock ons. Just can't do it today.

    Why are Connacht fans booing? It was clear crossing.

    Ref is officiating the break down quite well.

    Toulouse trying to use the dark arts and not being allowed to get away with it

    Kelleher and Dilane linking up well on the flanks. A nice one-two combo of speed and smash.

    Great comeback from Connacht. Minced early on in the scrum, but haven't dropped the heads. Heenan & Dillane have caught the eye, and the outside backs are having a field day.

    Love watching Connacht play, very enjoyable style.

    Toulouse are bordering on useless outside of their scrum and Besy's boot. Connacht far the better apart from one aspect. The scrum seems like far too important a part of the game for what is a restart method. If you dominate it there's nothing the other team can do

    Are you joking me? David got that ball with the whitest of jerseys and in the space of 1 second he's covered in blood. It came out of him like a fire hydrant!!

    Good try Toulouse in fairness but the pure power and size they have is making the difference. They always get over the gainline which has the Connacht defence retreating.

    Not one to comment of reffing, but there has been some terrible reffing against Connacht

    Big call and as it turned out didn't work out but I think they were confident from previous lineouts and maul success!

    I'd like to see a replay of just after jacks chip and gather before Toulouse 2nd try. On 1st view looked like one of the retreating Toulouse boys obstructed I think it was heff just as he was going in to secure the ball. From that they went up and got the try!!

    This is not looking great, some pretty porous defending by Connacht.

    Should attempted the 3 points I thought - although our Lineouts going well

    Our scrum getting mullered - get Loughney on for Carey and move Finlay to TH
