    I'm at the stadium. It's a fairly even split where I am. Atmosphere is poor I must say. I'd say there was more in Thomond Park last week for Munster v Ulster.

    Great to see Farrell do that.

    Offloads galore... Such a welcome sight.

    No arms tackle on Earls too.

    Actually maybe not from behind goal angle,

    I'd like to see Dan Goggin get some game time. But I can understand they need to keep Scannell on the pitch.

    Munster not getting the bonus point here in a pool with Sarries and Racing is a massive failure , this is a shocking Ospreys team

    Zactly. Let them walk over the line and small chance of a try BP then.

    Daft to defend that the way the did. Serious lack of streetsmarts.

    Been poor since the Subs started.

    Tech question:
    * Score is 25:6 - Munster want 4th try.
    * Deep in there own 22
    * The clock is at 72 minutes
    * Munster spend the next 6 minutes defending.

    Would they be better served letting them just score, so they get the ball back for a drop on halfway and chance to regroup?

    (this is a common tactic in basketball and american football)

    But it's horrendously bad game management.

    Concede a try of absolutely no consequence in order to bring play back to half way with some time still on the clock.

    An absolute no fukcin brainer.

    Good few comments before this saying that yes, logically it would’ve made sense.

    They were never gonna do it though

    This is the surprisingly common zero incentive finish. Both teams have points to play for. I sort of don't like it.

    Its happens alot in American football, where time management is a huge part of the game.

    Although they dont have to worry about things like points difference

    That Bonus point could be vital. Now leats hope Ospreys can do is a favour when they play Racing and Money bags.

    Not sure. If they let them score and they get another they get a LBP. Sport is quite momentum based. Give someone an inch, they take a mile

    Game was close to how I thought it might be, still a lot of errors and penalties which cost us position. Conway has be superb for Munster, surprised he and Scannell were subbed off. Earls looks like he's getting younger. Loughman deserved his MotM award, he was terrific.

    Very happy to get the BP win away from home.

    Roll on next week.

    Farrell completely murdered the Ospreys 13 at that ruck.

    Tbf the 13 was just kinda standing there asking to get smashed. Farrell just obliged, hopefully the young fella learned a lesson today :D
