Someone start a match thread please.

The tolerance for wind-ups in the match thread will be low.

Just to clarify, I didn't wind anyone up "in" the thread....

Teams:

Akrasia

Is anyone else using the Eir online player?

It is absolutely refusing to work for me

Guinness RFC

Eir have to do something about their pundits and commentators. Amateur doesn’t even begin to describe it.

PTH2009

Come on Munster

A repeat fixture for the semi final is very much not off the cards

Synode

Is this only on Eir ffs

Full match deferred on TG4 at 9.30 if you can avoid score till then

Working on my phone, but not on laptop or tablet. They're absolute jokers.

Switched to Eir for the pro-14 and I've had to watch the games on an illegal stream at least 60% of the time because their own service was unavailable or here was a glitch or they thought I was using an unregistered device (when all I did was clear my temporary internet files

Absolutely awful service unless you're a sky customer and can get it to work on the set top box

Download the new EirTV app.

A Munster LBP here would be nice

Scarlets facing Dragons next Saturday and Munster vs Connacht the next day

Win here for Munster and were in the semi finals regardless

Clegg

Munsters greater experience up front and addition of two world cup winners should see them win today. Very interested in seeing how Leinster's young forwards get on. Ryan Baird looks like he could be a test quality lock, but he hasn't been tested by quality opposition yet. Really looking forward to a back row with Doris and Conan. Don't think I've ever seen us with such carrying ability there.

Dave_The_Sheep

Munster by two scores, I suspect.

Bazzo

Those headphones Birch has on are stretched to the max, look like they could explode off his head at any minute.

Jesus this is surreal.

Who's the PA guy talking to?

I've been watching all the rugby today on a link, working fine - send me a message if you want it!

Eir is awful

Former Former

Eir working perfectly via the app and Chromecast, if that helps anyone

fitz

They reference 200 attendees...I presume that's crew and squads?

Munster got the circle wrong :rolleyes:

Via android?

Is there anywhere someone outside of Ireland could watch it?

Yeah, the EirTV app on my phone is Chromecasting fine, but couldn't get the web player working on laptop at all.

Sent!

Clegg

Jonny took a heavy knock there. Was very slow to reset after taking contact

AbusesToilets

Is there fake crowd noises being employed? Awful if that's the case. Rather here the players more

Buer

Clear lack of cohesion and rust is clear already. Free kick at a scrum, botched line out, three knock ons and a penalty all in first 4 minutes.

StevenToast

Liam Toland or "Toley" as eir clown referred to him earlier is painful to listen to...

Mute button it is

Guinness RFC

Baird needs to hold his zone at the base of the ruck or he’ll be done by an inside pass.

Stander not changing with the time off, still head down and run into contact

poor technique from sexton

Two dodgy lineouts from Leinster.

Clegg

Snyman off injured.

Disaster for Munster.

Clegg

Looks like Kilcoyne is struggling too.

He's off.

hes carrying off the back of the scrum and took two players out what exactly do you expect from him in that situation

Squidgy Black

Snyman and killer coming off so early is a huge loss

thomond2006

Time for a temper tantrum.

AbusesToilets

How was that a penalty to Munster? They were falling all over the deck there

Buer

Knocked on out of the ruck by red, I thought?
