    What? They’re the worst ranked English team and the rumours are that Hooper is losing the dressing room.

    Go back and watch the Bristol game from a few weeks ago.

    Form of 10 years ago? No idea what relevance that has




    They struggle but when it matters they are there.
    From August to November, they lost 1 by very few vs Wasps, 1 draw v Sarries and won 6 to make the SF

    Porch from the bench will cause damage against tired defence, has to come into the game early enough

    Sullivan/Wootton have to tackle

    Treviso have played 11, lost 11, and they have 12 players in the Italian squad this weekend. I wouldn't worry about it.

    Some good sides in the cc not going to be easy. I'd like another crack at Ulster in the semis or final but would settle for Bath or Agen first.

    On 11 they lost about 7 within 7 point-margin
    I would worry
    But less with Bundee in it

    any truth to the rumour a connacht player was involved in a bust-up with English staff in the Ireland camp?

    Lash up the deets. Don't even care if it's a work of fiction as long as it is interesting.

    Anyone know when a decision is to be made on whether the Rainbow Cup will go ahead or not?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 944 ✭✭✭RonnieL


    It was 20 degrees and sunny in Treviso this afternoon I see. Should be ideal for our game, so fingers crossed for 5 points and no injuries.


  • Subscribers, Paid Member Posts: 45,292 ✭✭✭✭sydthebeat


    o sullivan looked quite slow for that sarto play


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,366 ✭✭✭yerrahbah


    Not sure the tackler released Marmion there


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,279 ✭✭✭ClanofLams


    Class kick through by marmion


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,366 ✭✭✭yerrahbah


    Marmion impressing early on

    pressure paid eventually.
    treviso lucky not to be down to 14


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,181 ✭✭✭typhoony


    Marmion showing his class here already, how he is not involved with Ireland is baffling.

    Ha it’s called Bias!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,949 ✭✭✭gally74


    We solid more offloads in that last play than Ireland do in a game


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,649 ✭✭✭tabby aspreme


    Deserved that card


  • Subscribers, Paid Member Posts: 45,292 ✭✭✭✭sydthebeat


    terrible try to concede


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


    Connacht looked comfortable until the card.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,442 ✭✭✭its_phil


    Jesus Bundee, Sullivan and the kick from Fitz you deserve to concede.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,044 ✭✭✭connachta


    Sullivan is so sloww!
    horrible to watch today...

    The ongoing inconsistency of Connacht is hard to watch. Brainless stuff from Delahunt. Less said about defending for 2nd try the better.

    All to.do now when everything should have been under control.

    I'd get Carty on at this stage. Get some composure into them
