Did Flatman play for Quins? Either that or he's not a big Munster fan.

He doesn’t care who’s playing it’s all about the gags.

BT Sport via NowTV is 34 for two months and you can split it with someone as you can watch on two devices.

It's not the cost - it's the constant chopping and changing.

It has to be threatening viewership and interest at this stage, just pick a damn media partner and bloody stick with it for a few years.

Quins seem to have missed the memo that the point of the dark arts is not to be seen doing it.

Shrug it off Ben, they only do it because they know you're a threat.

Marler never gets stuck into forwards when play is on does he?
It’s always off the ball, blindsided, back or balls.

“A character of the game”.

I thought he was decent when itv had him for premiership highlights, not so much after tonight.

Harlequins' discipline has been atrocious. That tackle in the air from Smith was obvious.

Healy making his case well.

bilston

Serious power from Coombes

Well done Coombes!

He'll learn a lot from Finn at the training camps

And that’s game! Now with 10 mins left it’s about getting a TBP, doable.

aloooof

That’s a super finish, considering where he took contact.

Not sure why Munster persist with JJ. Just start Healy if he's fit

Coombes has come of age this season, what a prospect

Most Munster fans would agree tbh

Clearly forward

Tonight is the first time I've watched him in a full game. His physicality reminds me of Ferris

That co-commentator, Flatman is it, on BT - absolutely painful

Stream dropped for a bit but for what I saw for the most part our defence around the ruck has been excellent - swarming all over them and making dominant tackles

vetinari

Advantage surely over there

vienne86

Harlequins have shocking discipline.

MaddChris

Mixed performance. Not getting a try in the first half put an end to TBP hopes.
Bench was good, Healy clearly playing nearly his whole stint injured.

15 penalties, could have had another couple of cards and Dombrandt was lucky not to see red. pub teams are better than that.

nice point from Stringer there about Healy and Casey being the type of lads you need to drive on Munster and the team now.
Might be reading into it too much but time should be up for the starters in those position.

Josh Wycherley played very well coming off the bench. Good scrummaging and a few big hits around the park. Looks like he is going to excel at senior level in time.

Munster need to.play at a high tempo to be effective. Stander and Coombes etx will get the best go forward if they are not being met on or behind the gain line. Too often even tonight Stander was being met by 2 or 3 lads who are coming forward.

That's a disaster. Hard to believe in coincidence with regards both hits being on healy

That sort of "banter" stuff, when done incessantly, really seems to **** on the product. People are supposed to be watching the game.
