You may not like how Connacht use their foreign player quota but they don't lie to get extra depth where it's not needed

Do Connacht have a foreign player quota? That's a genuine question, I thought the NIQ rules didn't apply to Connacht.

We're much in the same lines as the rest of the provinces now. And according to the higher ups there, they want as indigenous and competitive to Connacht starting 15 as much as possible.

So at the minute the niqs are McCartney bundee, and Fox. And the nies are Boschoff and Dawai.

Saracens had a good win over local rivals Harlequins 40-19

Didn't knw they had an Irishman in charge of them

Hopefully this time 2 weeks we will be here talking about what a great semi final it was. Unfortunately can see Sarries being too strong for us but u never knw

OhHiMark · 09-04-2017 9:28am

From connacht fans taking the piss out of us last season to whinging about who we're allowed to sign. It's been a good year.

Very impressed with Jean Deysel's debut last night even if it was only for 40 odd minutes. He's the type of player we could need if we're to progress in both the CC & Pro12.

It looks like 8 points will guarantee a top 2 spot. The first tiebreak for equal points is number of wins and Munster currently have 16 wins to Ospreys' 13. In any case Ospreys' run is difficult: Cardiff (N), Ulster (H) and Scarlets (A). I can't see them winning all three. Hopefully Munster will have the Top 2 wrapped up following the trip to Treviso.

Ospreys season is circling the drain at the moment. I can see them struggling again this coming weekend against Cardiff who are hitting a little bit of form by their standards.

Ospreys are already without some big players and I can see them losing Biggar for this weekend after the PR mess that has been created.

Yeah it's very worst case scenario that Munster will need 8 points. I still think Ospreys will qualify for the playoffs. Ulster's prospects may depend on Leinster's progress in Europe. If Leinster send a strong team to Ravenspan they should win.

I assume Munster's team will be the strongest possible minus Murray and Bleyendaal. Confirmed concussion aside I think Bleyendaal was probably due to be rested anyway. We await news on Stander's injury but Deysel had a very good debut.

Do ye think they will rest a few players for the Ulster game this weekend?

Leinster could equally lose their next three games. Realistically the Clermont game is going to be the absolute focus so who knows what sort of a squad is going to Connacht. I still think we can beat them given their current form but we generally are poor the week before European knock out rugby so who knows.

Ulster are finding a bit of form and at home are always tough. And Glasgow had our number at the start of the season and will be chasing points.

I still think Munster are going to be comfortably top of the table by season end.

Has Murray been ruled out?

If he's fit, he surely has to play - otherwise he's going into the Saracens game with an untested injury and no game time in six weeks.

We probably won't see Bleyendaal or Stander (and maybe not Murray), but other than that I'd expect to see the full team out this weekend seeing as he rested players last weekend.
