Huge game for both teams. For Ulster it's a matter of staying ahead of Leinster while for Connacht it's a matter of making up ground on Munster. Both teams know the final will be be made up of the winners of Conference A and Conference B so there are no prizes for second.

Ah stop you’re upsetting me. Must win game tonight, big improvements in the lineout, maul defence, and edge defence needed.

I honestly think Connacht could get a 10-15 point win here. Ulster are missing for too many frontliners and while I know it isn't quite a full strengrh Connacht team it still looks very strong to me. Connacht have a definite edge in the pack.

That said, if Ulster's backs get a bit of ball, they will cause Connacht problems, but backs don't win matches!

Let’s go enjoy this game of rugby, fellow Connacht fans!

I think this will be way closer than that. That's a very exciting Ulster backline.

The pack doesn't look great.

Ulster dreaming of a team of Chris Farrell and Ethan McElroy.

Very Good from Ulster so far.

One thing is clear early here.

This ref isn’t up to the job.

Feels like Connacht shouting ourselves in the foot so far, but maybe that’s my bias showing. Ulster haven’t really had to do much.

Lovely hands all across the line there

Burkie1203

Bealham went for the posts. Can't do that anymore more. That's dumb

macslash

Did he forget to stop the clock there?

launish116

Great play there by Connacht, shocking defence by Gilroy?

lawrencesummers

Needs to come over the belhams side for the scrum

irishbucsfan

Connacht deserved a score there

lawrencesummers

Jordi sees the problem and is switching side

YC PT coming up.

It was McCall that missed the tackle on Healy if that’s what you mean.

YC but not PT yet.
Not worthy of a PT yet.

awec

McCall is mince

Dave_The_Sheep

One of the earlier ones was absolutely worthy of a PT though.

irishbucsfan

Look at the difference between Jordi Murphy's incredible hair and whatever that is surrounding Kyle McCall's face. This is the sort of thing that needs to change up north if they're ever going to start producing international forwards again

If they kept the ball at they base it would have been.

Best strike from Jack all year. More of that

Wasn’t it part of Madigans contract that he sported the nicest hair do at all times.
