    Crap for Tomane. He deserves to start.

    True - but I'd much rather him for next week.

    Hon the Ringer!

    There was a lovely link pass from Porter in the build up. Everyone expected him to take contact.

    Very early impressions.

    McGrath seems to have a bit more zip to his passing so far.

    Kelleher has started well.

    A couple of big early carries from Doris already.

    First time in the posh seats in the RDS, I'm normally in the south stand.

    Lads.

    For **** sake.

    Stop taking your seats ten minutes after kickoff. It's maddening, I missed Ringer's try because of arseholes streaming in and blocking my view.

    Doris getting turned over in our 22 leads to a Benneton try.

    How much were the tickets, as they play Benetton every year in the league, so did they put a European price premium on them?

    We look very good when we can build the phases. But we've knocked on so many times.

    Dont think I will ever understand players getting 2 chances to hit the 10 before a card.

    About five Benneton players in from the side of that maul

    Benneton have infringed a lot close to their own line. Red needs to make a decision here.

    It absolutely boils my blood when I see a opposition player between the ball and scrum half in a maul....

    I don't care if he gets there legally, he's obstructing the play and he should be made get out of there.

    The attacking players are actually prohibited from pulling him out, so it's purely down to the ref to get him out of there.

    Ticket prices shouldn't make a difference, that a shocking turnout for a home Champion Cup game.

    He took a long time getting up after tackling Toner in the run up to the yellow card.

    He should have been taken off sooner.

    Very patchy performance. We look good when we can build phases. But there's have been a few knock ons and poor clear outs that let us down. But we've hammered them when we got near their line.

    Brilliant counterattack from Larmour btw. Kearney's successor in blue and green.

    Keatley using a fair bit of Nouce there to take the widest possible turning circle in front of Larmour.
