    Munster might need the big guns off the bench soon.

    2 sloppy bits of play from Carty in last 5 minutes

    Munster's forwards look quite good carrying, but backplay has been pretty poor. They're not getting enough direction from the half backs. Makes sense since they're both rookies. Casey's been guilty of mistiming his pass on a few occasions.

    The first half has sped by, Munster should start to unleash the big guns soon after the break

    Tom Daly is having a super game for me. Great to see him performing so well since going out west. He had no luck with injuries at Leinster.

    Seems to happen to a lot of players. Questionable s&c

    Don't think he has had a mare (I missed up until the opening try though). He has been very average though. His pack and scrum half have given him plenty of clean quick ball and he's not really grabbing things.

    I'd suggest that JJH has been playing better than this.

    Best players on the park have been the Connacht locks. Both having big games. You get the impression that Munster have the upper hand overall up front though. Just a more cohesive unit.

    Thornbury going very well but Dillane is really in a great run of form. Shame he’ll never break through the national team.

    Doubt it's s and c. We have our own injury issues with certain players. Chance of scenery can help players with a refresh mentally. Look at oliver also in this game.

    Daly suits our style of play though. Meshes well with all our other centres and has one of the most intelligent kicking games in his position amongst the four provinces imo

    Or young players who are only developing are susceptible to a lot of injuries. Especially bigger players.

    That was a lovely offload from Haley there if that'd played out would have been something else

    That’s extremely harsh on Aki. Think he went to intercept that.

    Ya it was deliberate sadly. That'll be costly too.

    Penalty, yes. Think it's incredibly harsh to see a yellow given for it in the opposition half. Aki was clearly looking for the intercept and shot up into the gap. He then knocked it down when he didn't make it. Deliberate knock on but I think the card is very unusual to see in that situation.

    It seems the TMO is getting involved in this game. Unlike the England v Italy debacle.
