Match of the weekend without doubt.

Chris Ashton currently giving generic soundbites on Carty.

In fairness to BT there's a good bit of build-up on Connacht and very little mention of the Champions Cup. Pleasantly surprised.

I’d have sale as favorites but if the pack can keep it fairly even can see a bit of carty magic giving Connacht a serious chance.

Tom curry is the one player I’m most worried about, especially without butler and faingaa. Big game needed from Connolly, who’s never let the team down before.

Butchered that a bit. Carty and Godwin should have scored between them.

Hard to blame Godwin too much. Was a really poor offload but a great tackle. Should've scored that.

They're walking through us with the ball.... they look good for 4/5 tries thus far.

This will be over in 10mins. Barely a phase goes by where they don't make ground.

Kick over a rush defence. How are they not seeing that?

Sale defence up very quick every time. Hopefully room for a Carty chip and gather in behind at some stage

Shaping up to be an awful hammering unless we seriously buck up.

The policing or lack there off of any sort of offside line in most games these days is a joke. Very hard to put together any sort of attack
