That chargedown on Casey was high. Both hands up over his head.

aloooof

Conway is slowly getting back towards his pre-Covid form.

O'Mahony on to cool things down

Haley in trouble here

razorblunt

Needless from Haley.

Thought there was a question of a forward pass 1 or 2 phases beforehand, but that was class.

The TMOs seem to like looking back at any thing Munster do over the last few games, not the other way around

Ah stop. Refs have been very good tonight and that's a yellow

Yeah, obvious persecution bias from the officials towards munster only, sure doesn't Brace go extra hard on them

I mean it's a clear card I'm not sure how we can complain

There was no way Haley could have pulled out of that but many would have redded him tbh. Like Braces reffing style

razorblunt

That was an interesting one I thought Brace asked if he wanted it checked and I’m not sure if he was addressing the Cardiff captain or assistant ref.
Presumably AR. Henderson had to use a captains challenge in the RDS. I’m guessing that’s the difference between Brace and Adamson.

Shaka Hislop

It's like the parting of the red sea in defence at times

razorblunt

POM had a bit of a go at a player on the ground there too.

That last pass was forward

Ah he pulled out of it when the ball was passed

Haven't been concious of brace before but he's playing a blinder here imo real common sense stuff

You can't say that, the refs have missed nothing

razorblunt

Brace is going well. Cardiff stole one on the floor even though he warned them, pinged them at the very next ruck. He knew they caught him out I’d say.

aloooof

Would like to see Knox on soon. Crowley could be in if Haley fails the HIA as well.

Burkie1203

That should have been red

Cardiff got away with that one

razorblunt

Not sure about sealing off, Cardiff tackler never rolled away.

Leaves our the "significant drop" mitigation - yellow is fair

Never

There was very obvious and significant mitigation

He was never making a genuine attempt at a tackle IMO

razorblunt

Cardiff really starting to mess around at rucks now, tacklers either not rolling or rolling north to south.

Shaka Hislop

We could snatch defeat from the jaws of victory here

razorblunt

The backline have been shocking. That needed to be booted and chased hard.

PTH2009

Munsters season hanging on this match tbh

Also victory from the Jaws of defeat

razorblunt

How were Munster’s backline so out of shape there after one tackle from a strike play? Lads must be jogging

theVersatile

Craig's kicking game is a lot better today

And JvG’s future if you ask me.

Shaka Hislop

The butterfingers tonight are just beyond a joke

razorblunt

Another dropped ball from nothing. Must be the 4th or 5th.
A massive drop in intensity over the last few weeks. Unforgivable really.

razorblunt

That Cardiff flanker with the blue scrum cap, Robinson, looks like the Juggernaut. Huge head.

Losing 1000 caps worth of players going into your final year doesn't help.

razorblunt

Wahey pinged twice for not rolling.

PTH2009

yess

Beast from Knox.

Coombes has been brilliant too.

yerrahbah

Not sure Coombes released there for the turnover

theVersatile

Fineen JOS and Knox on the three man latch carry - love to see it from the young guns

Losing to Connacht last time out doesn’t help.

Having a reaction to that loss like the first 20 minutes of this game doesn’t help.

He wasn’t the tackler was he? First man on it.

Shaka Hislop

Blocking I think

Borderline enough but thought he was an assist tackler myself

Naholo definitely hugs.

But the high tackle wouldn't have happened if the first one is blown up?

I only saw it the once in real time, would need to see it again.
