    Thanks for posting OP.

    Bookmakers have Munster to lose by 8 which sounds about right. I'd absolutely take a LBP from this. It should be a fun watch!

    Going by previous results, a TBP is more likely than a LPB :P

    Coming away from SA with 6 points would be grand.

    As a matter of interest what odds had the bookmakers on the Glasgow and Ulster games there?

    Glasgow were -6, not sure about Ulster.

    Marshall in the bin and 7 nil to Cheetahs


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,599 ✭✭✭ScrubsfanChris


    Ball lost in the maul, ref gives Pienaar 15 seconds to find the ball instead of awarding Munster a scrum :confused:


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,781 ✭✭✭PetKing


    The two lads commentating should just head down to the pitch and get the shift with the Cheetahs out of the way, seriously like


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,599 ✭✭✭ScrubsfanChris


    Cheetahs back three being targeted well, they're crap under high balls
    Keep it up

    Penalty against Munster: "Good decision by the ref there"
    Penalty against Cheetahs: "Interesting decision, not sure about that"



    :rolleyes:

    Doing a very good job at controlling the pace of the game, not getting sukered into a loose display.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,845 ✭✭✭shootermacg


    We're in this one lads!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,433 ✭✭✭✭thomond2006


    Not watching but 7-6 down despite copping a YC sounds good?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,845 ✭✭✭shootermacg


    I think I'll die before I'll ever have a clue what that penalty is for.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,599 ✭✭✭ScrubsfanChris


    Daly caught out there, have to trust your teammate inside to make the tackle.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,845 ✭✭✭shootermacg

    Ref gave a penalty for god knows what, then at least 1 forward pass for the cheetah's try.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,845 ✭✭✭shootermacg


    9 - 12 at half time. Brilliant pacing by Munster.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,599 ✭✭✭ScrubsfanChris


    I'd take 12-9 at half time.
    If we can keep the penalty count down there is a win for the taking here.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,845 ✭✭✭shootermacg


    I'd be dropping bombs on their back 3 all next half.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,366 ✭✭✭yerrahbah


    Targeting the back 3 well.
    Good performance so far

    Loving our backplay, offloading and a bit of variety in attack is what has been missing. Very early days but you can see what they're trying to do. Marry that with our standard of forward play and that'll move us up a level this season


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,845 ✭✭✭shootermacg


    Mike Haley can certainly tackle.

    I actually like them, they’re positive and will call out good play from both sides


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,871 ✭✭✭budhabob


    Great pressure from sweets there


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,871 ✭✭✭budhabob


    Feck, that was some turnover and pressure by the cheetahs.

    19-9


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,599 ✭✭✭ScrubsfanChris


    Decided not to play our game and look what happens


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,998 ✭✭✭leakyboots


    Not too impressed by Nick McCarthy

    Edit: subbed at 49 mins


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,871 ✭✭✭budhabob


    Jaysus, scrum absolutely demolished there.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,845 ✭✭✭shootermacg


    That must be driving up! archer's legs actually left the ground in that scrum!

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,599 ✭✭✭ScrubsfanChris


    Front row needs replacing, minced in the scrum


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,597 ✭✭✭✭Akrasia


    Someone please tell the commentator that the red army refers to the Soviet Military or the Munster Fans, but not the players on the pitch


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,845 ✭✭✭shootermacg


    Cronin coming in with a twinkle in his eye. Expect 5 penalties and a yellow card in 3....2..


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,781 ✭✭✭PetKing


    Awful defending there.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,597 ✭✭✭✭Akrasia


    Referee decided Munster slowed the game in the first half so now he’s decided to not police the breakdown at all


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,599 ✭✭✭ScrubsfanChris


    Discipline is atrocious

  • Registered Users Posts: 1,366 ✭✭✭yerrahbah


    Could get ugly


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,871 ✭✭✭budhabob


    Decent response from Munster, need some points from this though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,871 ✭✭✭budhabob


    Don't know how that was against Cronin?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,781 ✭✭✭PetKing


    Their tighthead put his legs back and went down.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,386 ✭✭✭schmoo2k


    Lost bind I suspect

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,599 ✭✭✭ScrubsfanChris


    I will never understand that penalty why on earth would the attacking team want to pull down the scrum?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,386 ✭✭✭schmoo2k


    Running out of time - need some points...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,871 ✭✭✭budhabob


    Forward pass in the lead up to that I think?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,599 ✭✭✭ScrubsfanChris


    Commentators really tuned into whats happening in the game


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,998 ✭✭✭leakyboots


    Should have kept McCarthy on, we've gone to pot since he went off!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,597 ✭✭✭✭Akrasia


    “They love it in the stands” as the home crowd boo the referee for not allowing the try


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,998 ✭✭✭leakyboots


    "Definitely the tallest Man on the pitch... 2.09 centimetres tall"

    "Outstanding numbers"


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,386 ✭✭✭schmoo2k


    plenty of blocking going on...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,300 ✭✭✭✭razorblunt


    Off the feet from Cheetahs at the ruck and incredibly dangerous right in front of it, looks down at the player lying 4 feet past the ruck and does nothing.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,998 ✭✭✭leakyboots


    Whatever about the ref and some dodgy calls, Cheetahs are really putting up some scores this season. They've been the better team, especially this half. Good for the league.

    My optimism at half time has evaporated!
