    That's where you really want the TMO to come in. Clear as day knock on

    Cipriani - breaths
    Healy - Ahh that's brilliant!

    Toulouse are infuriating. Going through the motions

    You’re never as bad as they say you are and you’re definitely never as good as they say you are. Especially if it’s BT on Cipriani.

    A knock on in a maul by Gloucester before they were awarded a penalty and kicked 3 points.

    Toulouse run the ball out of their own 22 all the way over halfway and THEN kick the ball away.
    What kind if play is that?

    In at the side on Medard, right in front of Whitehouse. Nothing.

    Toulouse 9 is poor.

    I hate when refs coach the game. Shouting at Gray not to touch it whilst offside from a knock on. Let him go for it if he wants then penalise it. He doesn’t go around shouting about low tackles.

    Every ref in the game does this. Every single one.

    I’ve only ever seen it at mauls with the likes of Owen repeatedly shouting “away” haven’t seen one as blatant as Nige Jr here for a while.

    Good man Austin. Says Toulouse looking ragged and loose ... then they score ten second later. Stellar.

    BT offering no insight into Glaws effectively being dominated all half here. It’s been smash and grab from them. They’re holding tight for the comeback.

    In fairness the commentator has referred to the total dominance of Toulouse in the second half and the fact that Gloucester have had to make over 200 tackles so far.
    edit; Gloucester crowd booing every correct decision against them, pain in the arse

    Gloucester not really winning any of the collisions here. Struggling in possession.

    Toulouse made heavy weather of it. Gloucester look very average.

    No composure in the end from Gloucester and Toulouse not much better.

    Gloucester fans very unhappy at the conclusion there.

    Gloucester are bang average. I think the Premiership has Saracens, and then there is very very little between about 8 teams. Don’t see any of them challenging in Europe this year unless Saracens decide to give it a go.

    Apart from half backs and Polledri when he came on Gloucester looked very average. Their CC campaign looks doomed already and they have been less than impressive in Premiership.

    It wont show what channel after the game has already started.
    But every game is on BT Sport and just the one on Virgin Media, so it's not that hard to find it.

    Great win by Ulster. Leinster and Munster both cruising to victory. Connacht hopefully will complete a clean sweep.
    On another note why are VM! holding back highlights until late on Monday evening?
