Think that came off his knee.

I don't agree with that decision at all. Whitehouse with another gift to Connacht.

irishbucsfan

Ha while Whitehouse was saying it was a knockon I was thinking it was off his leg, then when he decided it was his leg I thought it was a knockon!

Not so sure on that one...

Whitehouse was originally not gonna give it. I think he made the right call, if not adeoloukun is a great actor.

LuckyGent88

Thought it hit his left arm but very hard to call.
Pity as we done very well while down the men.

The Last overhead angle was the best but we never got to see it in slow motion

Korat

Connacht playing like champions. Good stuff.

Hagz

Came off his hand imo.

coco0981

From the very last angle we saw from up high it looked like a knock on, pity we only saw that angle once

Neil3030

Whitehouse certainly backs himself.

Bealham blatently flopped on his belly. It should have been a Munster penalty. Whitehouse messed up the decision and changed the game in the process.

CRonin bound on the arm and quite clearly pulled him down. Have you never stopped to wonder why refs and Irish coaches appear to hate Munster players so much?

Cripes man, get a grip. There's blinkered, and there's not watching the game according to the rules at all.

Pudsy33

If it hit Zebos boot, is that not a block down?

hogandrew

Connacht definitely getting the better of the tight calls from the ref here. I think it was off his hand

irishbucsfan

Jesus a lot of Munster fans there obviously, you can hear Official Munster Song Fields of Athenry belting out.

Touch judge said it was off his leg from the start.

Quint2010

That was a knock on for sure

thomond2006

Incredibly awful from Saili

Hagz

Munster fans doing their best to lift their team.

This is textbook refereeing by Whitehouse.

He can only disallow if it's a clear and obvious knock on. And it definitely wasn't clear or obvious. He had to award the try.

He's having an excellent and very authoritative game.

Did Saili win his all black caps in a lucky bag? My goodness.

irishbucsfan

To be fair there is a core of what could be a very good Munster team on the pitch today.




Ultan Dillane and Shane O'Leary

My Saorview stopped working so watching tg4 beo ar line

He's a 12 through and through. Wasted at 13. Lovely passing game and really gifted at freeing his hands after contact. I'd take him at Leinster over Henshaw all day.

Aw man Connacht can't afford to lose Aki now.

ongarite

NO, please dont have done his knee in

Tomtom364

Did whitehouse just penalize aki there???

The lad wasn't even in the ruck, killer landed on him and may have broke His fecking leg.

Korat

Penalty against an obviously injured player for not rolling away.

Who was saying Connacht are getting the decisions?

Owwwww

That looks bad

Happening to an unconscious Ryan against Leinster.

irishbucsfan

I get the impression that you could amputate Bundee's leg and he'll keep going

Utopia Parkway

Wonder should Aki be taken off?

Neil3030

If he's not hurt after that we need to test if he is actually a human being.

He was only obviously injured when the replay was shown.

BBDBB

It's a miracle

Aki walks off his broken leg

It was a very aggressive play though to be fair, fairly low percentage. Maybe should have kept the pressure up

If the referee halted play every time a player on the wrong side was shouting or potentially hurt, we'd have multiple stops every game.

mansize

Sloppy Ted! Sloppy

Korat

Aki would have scored there if his leg hadn't been broken earlier.

LuckyGent88

How did we let them out so easily

Buer

Should be a penalty. Was never an effort to catch the ball.
