    Bollix.

    Need to steady the ship here. Stormers have been poor so let's not give them a sniff.

    Getting away with taking out the 9 there made up for the Coombes penalty.

    Not sure Stormers have been poor, more like Munster have just suffocated them

    I'd say that score is fair enough at half time. Intensity through the roof, Munster should be happy enough with that, can see them closing this out the final 20.

    That was a great first half. Munster really should be a couple of scores ahead.

    Stout maul defence by Munster there.

    Brilliant defending from Munster

    Honestly an incredible half from them and hugely disappointing to just be 5 up

    Munster playing really well, unlucky not to have more on the scoreboard.

    Cannot believe how average the Stormers are, some of them look unfit. 9 & 10 are all over the shop at times for them. Their aerial game is non-existent - losing nearly every box kick from either team.

    A fairly outstanding first half by Munster. After the early try, they dominated and were close to adding a try or two to their well deserved lead.

    Jantjies has been so, so bad. Chasm in quality between Murray and he.

    Some very harsh calls against us that half!

    Totally dominant by Munster for 35 minutes. Little things prevented them being 15 or so up.

    Dreadful.

    Stormers are completely reliant on Libbok for ideas, keep shutting him down and they're done.

    The good thing about not being further ahead is we know we can outplay them and we have to come out and do it, we cant be sitting back trying to protect a lead

    liked that Crowley came in immediately after the try and corralled Nash, telling him to think. Intelligent stuff, good sign

    Another performance like the first half and we are the best team in the Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Italy and South Africa.

    That performance merits a 10+ point lead. And we have the fitness to do it all over again in the second half.

    I reckon Casey will have huge impact as Stormers continue to tire, as will Kendellen.

    Unless Stormers suddenly turn into a top-end test side, this one won't even be close by the end.

    There’s a lot to be cheerful about so far. Slick passing, great mauling, solid scrums.

    I can’t understand the coombes no try. There is no double movement. Or at least if there was one, then we need to call off a ton of ‘place the ball’ tries.

    On the heavy pitch, Stormers will run out of gas very quickly and Munster have the better bench.

    Did we only have one scrum in the first half?

    Munster by 15, Roos to get a second yellow

    Libbok having one of those days again.

    Poor goal kicker.
