I thinks he's the best analyst on RTE these days.

Glasgow, so inspired by Connacht last night, have decided they'll butcher as many trys.

clsmooth

Great defence. Been all Glasgow but I’d be worried if I was a Glasgow fan as Munster will come into it. Munster just need to settle.

Munster & Glasgow: "Where we're going, we don't need overlaps"

Cateym

F*ck yes

clsmooth

Beauty! Great play going through the phases.

Neil3030

Rope-a-dope-counter-punch masterclass.

leakyboots

Coombes is a monster. Amazing carry

ltd440

Brilliant,that will take the wind out of Glasgows sails

Shehal

**** me now that's a kick in the teeth for Glasgow, Munster defensively have been excellent but when they had to score they did which is fantastic.

Easy in hindsight but Glasgow not taking those 3's is very idiotic and showed a lack of respect.

I'll re-use my joke from last year:

He penetrates so hard the Dubs named a maternity hospital after him.

Unreal, about a foot off the ground and marching forward.

Clegg

That's a red for Glasgow 10.

budhabob

RG can't get any luck.

Neil3030

Dearg.

clsmooth

Red, should to head no wrap

That is the most red card

leakyboots

That's a red surely?

Deffo red there

So Leinster v Munster next week then

Lovely

Neil3030

The mods have my sincerest sympathies.

murtyd17

Looks like it

Clegg

Originally thought red because it rode up and hit Murray high.

But the other angle showed it was no arms and shoulder to head. A crimson card.

TomsOnTheRoof

Crowley has been very good so far

Eod100

Get in!

leakyboots

Lovely from Crowley to pause and draw the pass to give Frisch the space

No way it’s all about Glasgow how great they are, he would be better in the mart today with his old lad then running Munster down and all Glasgow.

Neil3030

Fekitoa must have a murder bonus in his contract.

Shehal

Fantastic from Nash! Really have a great season, would love to see Farrell have a look at him in August.

Brief_Lives

Is it possible to play a week later if you fail a HIA1... any HIA2 or HIA3, that can allow training to resume?

Shehal

Surely the ball just skimmed the line there? 5M scrum isnt a bad outcome though.

Hotblack Desiato

What is it going to take to get through to these guys that a shoulder to the head is just not acceptable? We saw similar in the L game, Porter was pinned down couldn't defend himself got whacked in the head and only a yellow. Refs need to crack down and red was the right decision here for sure. L v M semi is going to be tasty 😁

not really if we are already missing POM RG and Murray

also Paddy Paterson as ruptured his ACL, so we are down to academy scrumhalves

Further highlights the farce of this orange card or whatever they're calling it where a player can be replaced after 20 mins.

Happened as well to one of the Irish lads v France. Team loses a player permanently to a HIA but the other team effectively have the impact of their actions reduced.

Hotblack Desiato

I mean on boards 😀

Cateym

DoC looks like he's off to a funeral on RTE 2.

Akrasia

I think that red should have been a penalty try as well. Murray seemed to be through and when the last man defending fouls in the tackle, then they're removed from the equation, so the question becomes, if Murray wasn't tackled there, would he have scored a try

I didn't see any other defenders, but am open to correction

Hotblack Desiato

Probably but it's hard to see a penalty try given more than a couple of metres off the line.

Do they really need to have a plastic pitch in Glasgow, it's not feckin' Iceland...

aloooof

Crowley the best player on the pitch? He's been brilliant, a number of excellent involvements in the first try, thet extra step and pass assist for the 2nd, at least 2 attempts at a choke tackle and, one dodgy kick aside, some brilliant exiting. He's been class.

Huge d in the first 20 minutes keeping us in it. The injuries are a huge blow tho...

He is to be fair. It's rare he has a bad game for us, he's having a huge season.

Neil3030

What's the name of the band?

Shehal

Rolling away and being on you're feet at ruck time is only an option now it seems.

Shehal

Munster arent playing badly per say but they do appear to be taking their foot off the pedal and give Glasgow every chance of getting back into the game.
