    Keatley with a straight forward penalty to start the scoring. Nicely taken

    When will the Munster players learn how to hold onto the ball and not drop it 99% of the time?

    No try

    Edit; thought Conway was in front but he was grand

    ?

    Definite try. And given!

    Brilliant from Sweetnam to tap it down.

    10-0

    Edit: Unless you are saying Conway was offside, which was close in fairness.

    The negative option isn't always the real one you know, clearly backwards, try.

    Having seen 10 minutes of him and not knowing his name, the Glasgow fullback is appalling. Actually Glasgow are appalling. Munster all over them

    Munster should really go all out here, this Glasgow side are there for the taking. There only tactic will be to start bitching to the ref like they did versus Ulster.

    I got to say, Duncan Williams has been reborn these last few games. To the extent where I actually dont mind at all him starting for us.

    Something has definitely clicked. But scrumhalf will always look better when the pack are playing well, and our pack are on fire this season

    Nigel is brilliant.

    It's your fault for praising Williams!

    He had to miss a tackle to remind you!

    Glasgow are a very good side playing at home. They're bound to make breaks off their own set piece.
    Munster need to contain them and take our own chances when they come. A Lbp would be a perfectly respectable result, but I think we should definitely play to win

    Scannell has been brilliant so far penalties aside.

    Crushing hit from JOD just before it as well.

    Lol.

    Owens: Any more penalties I'll consider a yellow card. Go and have a word with your team.

    POM: Yes sir.

    *jogs back, doesn't say a word to anyone...

    Attitude like that is a big reason our provinces dont do anything in europe anymore, accepting defeat. This Glasgow side is down to the bare bones, why should we settle for less?

    Munsters ill discipline keeping Glasgow in it. They are awful at the minute and showing it. Less penalties and Munster will be fine

    On that replay looks like Killer was shafted. Didn't take the lifter at all! Man had landed so lifter was joining the maul.


    I understand why Nigel gave the yellow, but that seemed a poor call from the TJ.

    Great stuff from Kleyn!
