    Did Steyn not put his heel in touch there?

    Well who said it will be a high scoring game much harder to win than you expected...

    Yip, no TMO called. You could see it fairly obviously on the full speed replay.

    His right foot looked like it was in touch alright, and the pass looked borderline, thought he would have gone to TMO for a look at least

    He was, you could see it on the replay.

    When you look at the crazy times a tmo is called in I can't believe that wasn't checked.

    Yeah amazed he never went to the TMO. He was so close to the touchline. Refs nearly always check those ones out.

    Thought Carr's try was prime for a TMO check. Totally sound as it turns out but should have at least had a look. Do we *have* a TMO this evening?

    He's reffing this match like someone who's busting to get to the jacks.

    Thought the Carr try should have gone upstairs too - there's no way he could been sure about that, but at least that one looks like the right decision.

    Harsh call. He was just trying to charge down the kick. If we score from this it will at least make up for the awful call for the second try.

    They can't defend our maul legally, there's a card in this.

    we already scored from wrong decision when he didn't call a blatant maul, should have been Treviso scrum but we got penalty for them not rolling away, got lineout and Parata scored

    Just caught the replay of their second try and haven't seen ours. Sounds like he's having a poor game.

    Wrong call from Niyi there.

    I've not said this will be a defeat. I've said we absolutely have to be in the game after the hour to benefit from the bench, because Treviso is in it as I expected..

    Connacht very lucky Treviso butchered that. The Treviso 10 doesn't want to use the ball at all. Had a huge gap there and could have gone himself. Instead he flings a pass behind his mans head. Awful after them getting into a great position.

    yes it looks like Lougnhey is in trouble at scrum time, he took a knock at start of the game may have something to do with it. Could see JP Cooney or Finlay on soon

    Rodney is actually playing pretty daycent

    I wouldn't want to be heading into the Glasgow game needing a point.

    This could end up costing us top 4 unless something changes drastically.

    The penalty try?

    Lifting a player in the scrum it's dangerous and illegal. Obvious penalty against treviso.
