    Finding it increasingly difficult to concentrate on the game with all the paint drying around me.

    WTF was wrong with that poach? Made the tackle, clearly released, went back and won it fairly. Ulster player went off his feet trying to clear out, if anything should have been a Conn penalty

    Connacht playing like 15 lads who've never met each other. How are Ulster only 3 up?

    As soon as it looks like something interesting is about to happen, the ball is spilled......or some other error.

    Ah that was a great bit of offloading that eventually led to the try. Lovely try for Connacht......despite the best efforts of the commentators to find a forward pass.

    Yep. I'd say telegraphed but they're so slow it's more Pony Express

    Lads is Robbo always this bad or is he especially poor tonight, I'd say about 50% of his statements are in any way accurate. :D

    Well Ulster had the bulk of the posession in that half and no sign of a try.....going in to half time behind. That's pretty shocking.

    Half time. Kiss to work his magic in the dressing room. Ulster lose by 20. Awec arrested for trashing his apartment

    I'll take that
    Connacht have let Ulster have most of the ball who, bar Stockdale, look a tad toothless (which is very surprising considering their backline on paper)

    Scrum is going Very well

    Lot of positives from that:
    Great last ditch tackling :)
    Lineout good
    Ultan getting back into his mojo
    Ja having a stormer and unlucky to get pinged
    Scrum good

    Gonna be gutting when we lose this though

    Feel dirty switching from tg4 to BBC at ht for a Ferris meltdown but it may pay dividends

    never trust a 'backline on paper'. Have to say, as a spectacle this is the worst game I have witnessed in some time. Ulster are muck and Connacht are clueless. Who will win such a game. Really hard to say

    So, half-time here and I'm joined by Connacht coach Kieran Keane. Kieran, close first half but your team leads 5-3.

    Dunno.

    What do you mean "dunno"? They do lead by 5-3 don't they?

    You tell me.

    Ok...well I'm telling you your team is leading by 5-3. You must be happy to be leading away to Ulster.

    Dunno.

    What do you mean "dunno"? You are happy to be leading aren't you?

    You tell me.

    Ok...ok...well that was Connacht coach Kieran Keane...whose Connacht team leads 5-3 at half time...and I think he's happy?!
