    Should be a cracking game.... now just to avoid any Leinster related thread on here so I can catch that match straight after.

    Pretty sure the Benetton tighthead's knee hit the ground before Buckley's there but that's 2 now so it'll be in the ref's head for the night no doubt.

    Disappointed you deleted this because I absolutely agree that Eddie the Eagle is a shadow of his former great himself, much like Scarlets.

    Bit confused about why there was a penalty there. Was that not clearly a Connacht knock on, if they then regathered possession should it not have been blown for a scrum??

    Never seen a team pinged as much as us for holding on over the last 2-3 seasons. Is it just because I watch more Connacht matches or is our ruck protection pretty crap.

    Feck, that was very easy off the scrum after a lot of fairly heroic defence.

    Ah come on, no release at all from the tackle there and it allows Benetton to drive over and send the ball flying backwards.

    Some of Connachts interplay in tight spaces is delightful but their passing in general has been poor.

    Carty, Fitzgerald, McCartney and Thornbury have all made big impacts off the bench.

    GREAT ****ING TRY. HON THE LADS

    Carty is the form player in the country right now, he's just seeing everything and then makes the execution look easy.

    Butler is just such a workhorse. 12 carries for 21 metres and 20 tackles is a phenomenal amount of wok to get through.

    It's obviously our gain that he didn't start last week but it's legitimately shocking that Carty wasn't given more minutes. Even casual Welsh fans around me were shocked Sexton was left on so long last weekend.

    On current form, its not even close.

    But if both combinations are at their best, its the latter by some distance. Its really encouraging though to see the likes of Carty breaking through. He looks a serious talent.

    But but but... I respect Sexton. But it wasn't even fair leaving him out there in Cardiff or Italy...

    Their passing is so crisp and fast.. Great pairing.

    Scarlets have also clawed back some dignity so looks like we will keep 3rd place in the table. Realistically it doesn't matter all that much as it will probably all come down to the Cardiff home game.

    Breaking through?? Carty has over 100 appearances for Connacht.

    Tonight he became their all-time record points scorer with 691 points.

    Sexton is the world player of the year. He was always going to get the chance to play himself into form. Carty could well be close to leapfrogging Carbery in the 23 though.

    It’s been a breakthrough season for him to be fair. He’s erraticed the silly errors and is just going from strength to strength right now.

    First time since MacGinty that I’ve looked at our 10 and gone, opposition should be scared.
