    A great turn over by TOH at a vital time

    Kerins a bit all over the shop. Great break followed by a wild pass. Can see Blade coming on soon.

    How Toulouse we’re supporting their own body weight for that turnover is ridiculous

    Killer right on half time and came from when Connacht were actually on the attack.

    Try just before half time. That's a killer. But Toulouse deserve to be in front.

    Were in trouble once TOH couldn't collect the ball and knocked it into touch instead. Very slippy conditions to be fair to him.

    A good watch that 40 min
    Connacht using their wings at 1st receiver at consecutive rucks is unusual.
    Struggling at half back to make good decisions.

    Loved Dupont’s 40 yard lineout!

    Another pasting coming here by the looks of things.

    Not really anyone to blame in all of this, can't expect to compete with the best when you have to play the likes of Kerins and gift points away every game.

    I think we'll be lucky to even finish 4th in the Pro14 based on the season so far.

    Bad decisions again. Unfortunately SH pass wasn’t great either.

    Any updates on when Marmion is back?

    Just outmuscled and overpowered again. A fairly consistent theme of the past 6 weeks or so.

    Not getting as good half back play as last season either.

    Connacht scrum looks good at least.
    Thought McAllister went well

    This is going to sound silly but I didn’t realise how good Kaino is! & looks bigger in Red!

    Just about to say that. Carty didn't know what to do on the chaseback because everyone was still offside. Niyi had no intention of trying to block the kick there either and handling is poor.

    Have resisted saying Connacht look poorly coached but they do right now. Decision making hesitant and more often poor, handling dire and whilst conditions are awful it's not impacting Toulouse nearly as much.

    Connacht aren't competitive at the breakdown either even when it's forwards against backs.

    Fair play to the Toulouse fan who has kept up his tuneless singing for the entire match.

    Feels like we’ve been very poor near the opposition try line this season. Often have 10 minute spells pounding away without being able to get over the try line.

    Ha! I’ve resisting saying same watching this. Maybe it’s down to inexperience at SH and form at FH?

    In the main stand - what did he do/say to the crowd in the Clan Terrace after going off? People seemed annoyed!

    Toulouse are braindead. Absolutely no need to be at this with 10 minutes left in a game they've dominated.
