Connacht Team Talk Thread VI - Some like it TOH

Zeugnis · 24-09-2022 02:27PM

Fully agree with the praise of DTM, Murphy good too. Midfield poor, need to bring on Bundee and move TF to 13, he looks really out of position right now. Would bring on Hawkshaw as well. Porch good. Hope something goes right for McNulty in the second half, that was a woeful lapse of attention to drop the pass, and the kick he let through for the 50/22 reminded me of a similar mistake by TOH last week. Not a good look.

Otherwise, Stormers very cynical, hope to see them take another yellow.

I think with Stormers defence up very quick we need Hawshaws creativity to get the backs more involved. With Bundee to come on too there's points there for the taking. DTM really putting his hand up for starting Hooker now.

Hard to figure out how Aki isn’t on, must be time management or something.

You’d think he’ll be on at 50min

Wegians89 · 24-09-2022 02:40PM

DTM did so well staying in there

Blade looks like could be seriously hurt there

connachta · 24-09-2022 02:42PM

Blade slim RWC hopes are over.....

Utopia Parkway · 24-09-2022 02:42PM

Blade off with an ankle injury. Looked like he got it caught underneath the Stormers player that was tackling him.

Utopia Parkway · 24-09-2022 02:50PM

Continuing the give away some absolutely daft penalties that are allowing the Stormers to extend their lead.

Zeugnis · 24-09-2022 02:54PM

Tragic for Blade.

Murray is doing a good job disrupting their line out, sometimes we're not alert enough to make the most of it. Three penalties from Buckley, one dubious but his last one, lifting the leg in the maul was completely brain dead.

I know they said that last penalty was against Buckley but the ref called it against Murphy no 4

Clegg · 24-09-2022 02:58PM

Aki has been a massive liability since coming on.

24-09-2022 02:58PM

Bundee has been dreadful. Murphy a penalty machine too

Big-time very poor in a few plays and this looks like being a red.

Bit of a shame as was some nice play there and ended with what would have been a nice try

SqueakyKneecap · 24-09-2022 02:59PM

Bundee has been absolutely wreckless off the bench

Burkie1203 · 24-09-2022 02:59PM

Red card for Aki

MayoForSam · 24-09-2022 03:00PM

Bundee embarrassing himself now.

Shehal · 24-09-2022 03:00PM

They ought bring in new gun regulations for the west of Ireland with the amount of times Connacht shoot themselves in the foot...

Clegg · 24-09-2022 03:01PM

Really dislike Aki's conduct post red card. Arguing with the officials is a big no.

SqueakyKneecap · 24-09-2022 03:01PM

What is Bundee whinging about ffs it was as clear a red as you'll see

BrokenMan · 24-09-2022 03:01PM

Idiot play from Aki and then arguing the decision. Absolute liability since he came on.

Larbre34 · 24-09-2022 03:03PM

Ja, I'd say that dissent just bought him an extra four weeks on top of the eight week ban he was going to get. Might be available for the festive fixtures. Might.

What does he be thinking.
