Phenomenal try saving tackle but I have no idea how Saracens didn't convert that chance.

Murrey's put in two performances tonight. One monster one in defence and a shocker with the ball.

I disagree. He's actually been fairly decent with the ball. Couple of mistakes, not perfect but in general decent. If he had Keatley outside him, Munster would be a lot better in attack.

And yeah, they messed it up badly. 3-man overlap.

Anatidaephobia

Getting tense here.

Saracens are a much better team with Farrell at 10

Munster should take note and get Keatley on

Micky Dolenz

Defensive is immense this evening.

Fireball07

Saracens

Well done Jones! Covered well.

Anton Pitout

Great tackle from Howlett. O'Gara is playing very deep as usual, it's making it very hard for Munster to make it across the gain line.

Fireball07

Saracens

Varley and Laulala for Sherry and Jones.

Zebo or Earls to full-back?

Anatidaephobia

Hon Earls.

Podge_irl

Looks worse on replay. They desperately needed someone to straighten up commit some of the Munster defenders covering across. Saracens are making chances but are headless at the moment. Some very good defence from Munster at key times too.

Does Barritt ever pass the ball?? I think he's been at fault for butchering a few chances out wide.

Saracens

Ah Varley.

RebelRed90

munsters defence is impressive

Fireball07

Saracens

Forward pass...right call I think.

A-Train

Great pickup by Dougie!

Micky Dolenz

Mun 15 - Sars 6 72 mins

Anton Pitout

Great chance wasted. Anything that ticks the clock down is welcome at this stage though.

ScissorPaperRock

BOD-esque pickup by Howlett there

Fireball07

Saracens

Will be a penalty for Sarries, don't want them getting a losing bonus

beertons

Saracens

wow, he missed.

ongarite

Farrell having a mare.

Anatidaephobia

Farrell having a nightmare with the boot.

WinnyThePoo

Farrell..jesus.

Fireball07

Saracens

Another miss

Delighted, but still shouldn't keep giving them chances. Keatley for Zebo. Hmmm

Micky Dolenz

Some people don't like the quiet of a Limerick evening

budhabob

Saracens

How keatley is only coming on now is beyond me. Also, as stated early, Farrell for player of the year is beyond me.

Anatidaephobia

RoG kicks into touch.

WinnyThePoo

O'Gara..Jesus

Ah ROG

its_phil

The IRB council chose that guy.....

BAHAHAHA

WTF was that, ROG?

He's been awful today.

Saracens

Ah ROG.

Saracens

Another great scrum, another bad penalty after.

Podge_irl

I haven't been watching the whole game, who is on in the front row for Munster? Excellent scrum.

Anton Pitout

The incessant booing from the crowd for every penalty against Munster is annoying.

Micky Dolenz

Bad mistake by RoG there.
Munster are making hard work of this.

Another penalty given away.

It's Du Preez-Varley-Botha now


Another silly penalty.

kilns

Most other teams would be coming away with a victory today with the amount of penalties Munster have given away

im sure you will get over it

Bollix.

Fireball07

Saracens

Bound to score eventually.


Need to get deep in their territory and score now. Howlett and Coughlan were the standout players, right choice there.

Utopia Parkway

ROG is completely over the hill at this point. Munster let alone Ireland should be looking to phase him out asap.

Anatidaephobia

Good victory, but a bit disappointed to give away the bonus point.

Fireball07

Saracens

Hmm...disappointing lack of ambition there. Although we were going nowhere.

kilns

How can ROG still be selected, they take a 10 yard step backwards when passing to him!

Micky Dolenz

Good job, well done.
