"Apparently, Muldoon has signed for Grenoble for next season"

I just burst out laughing at the commentator suggesting Muldoon was linked to Grenoble next year

These two commentators really sound as if they haven't much of a clue.

I liked when the other commentator knew he was wrong but didn't point it out he just said that Muldowney was linked with Grenoble, he has much more restraint than I would have

"His body language suggests Denis Buckley does not want to play scrum half"
Watch any Connacht match and you'd know that you have to stop him play scrum half at times :rolleyes:

Thanks guys

Myself and my mate were in stitches at Farrell there, what was he thinking? Walked around the back of a ruck and stood over the opposition ball.

"What's the score?"

"I don't know" *looks at the board*

Nice one.

Swan Curry

As president of the Andy Goode fan club I'm going to have to ask you all to go easy on his commentary

What happened with O'Brien there?

vienne86

Aki involved in the handbags......surprise surprise.

vienne86

Oooh I think that could be a try for Grenoble.

vienne86

No try.....but yellow for Buckley.....deserved.

mansize

Didn't think it was a try. Yelloe fair

vienne86

Roux on for Dillane. Connolly has to go off to bring Loughney on.

Yes I always lead with the home team. Hate when your team are away and you are given their score 1st... It's a nerd thing

mansize

Try Grenoble

vienne86

Can't grudge that try - big gap with Aki in the scrum.

mansize

23-29 63'

That was the last thing O'Leary needed to do.

pickarooney

Brilliant restart...

vienne86

Ah O'Leary......kick off over the dead ball line....just when a good kick off was really needed.

Bazzo

O'Leary with the restart again...

mansize

17 minutes is a long time

fitz

Just on the Buckley Yellow...the ball must be on the ground for a ruck to be formed no? So add it was off the ground, how can he have been offside? Am I misunderstanding something?

its_phil

Some of the passing skills of Grenoble are very poor. Mixing one great pass with another stinker

mansize

Grenoble off their feet so relief for Connacht

vienne86

O'Leary should have kicked that but escapes when Grenoble go over the top......calm down lad.

Grenoble applying huge pressure. cool heads needed.

mansize

Don't think the winner of this is going past the SF

You're right, but he was penalised for something from before the break according to the referee. Grenoble were complaining they didn't get the penalty in line with it and he said exactly that.

Maybe if it's london irish but i doubt quins will fear either of these teams

Snickers Man

I think I saw in the paper that Connacht would get a home semifinal if they won but the EPRC website implies that they'll be away. Anyone know the story?

Not wishing to get ahead of myself or anything...;)

I'm pretty sure if Connacht win this they are guaranteed a home semi.

Bazzo

Also the BT commentary are clueless about Connacht at least.

Uphill task without a 10
