That was an impressive miss from McGrath.

Luke McGrath on kicking duties. We'll be needing plenty of tries tonight judging by that attempt

He used his sand wedge when a 3 iron would have been the right call.

This is atrocious.

We're down to bare bones in backline but 1-9 has been really poor.

McGrath needs to cop on. Not good enough. He's a supposed leader in this side now.

While it's a totally different side, it's a continuation of the Saints game in terms of how loose we are and and loads of errors.

Why did we bring on Turner for Sexton instead of Hawkshaw?

Haven’t seen us so badly dominated in the break down in a long time. 5 breakdown penalties so far by my count.

Ah lads what the f%~k are we playing at? Two passes inside our own 22?

No game intelligence on show at all.

Brain dead stuff so far. They're really up for it. It doesn't like we are.

Luke McGrath is killing us.
He has to take responsibility and clear the ball himself.
He's got a novice at 10 and he's shovelling the ball to him.
Has he forgotten how to box kick.

Yeah, the inexperience is really showing here. This will be a bonus point win for Connacht. Not much we can really do about this, the team is barebones and largely have even more inexperience on the bench.

Absolutely abysmal 40 minutes of "rugby" from us.
