Delighted. Well deserved. Ulster so poor. That's 2 assists for Burns

Maybe but the placement and timing of the passes put him in the position to make the mistake.

David Humphreys summed it up.
Ulster have been getting BP wins but they haven't been playing well.

Before his penalty miss there Carty asked a teammate "How many tries do we have?" And someone answered him with "Three I think".
Someone else must have interjected.

Connacht need to move to that indoor facility in mayo. 😂
They are about as hard nosed a team as you could imagine. That was relentless.

It will be very instructive to see who gets called up if one of Farrell's three OHs gets injured.

Very big win for Connacht. An exemplary performance from them, full of effort, accuracy and invention.

Probably not allowed show games that are played in the British (Ooh but that's evil) Isles but not in the UK.

If Connacht had got their deserved win last weekend, they'd be a headline team across Europe. They are a seriously well coached team, particularly defensively, this season. They could always attack but what defenders. Oliver was a revelation at openside and what an engine.

If they'd gotten their win last weekend, they'd have lost well tonight. They're a team devoid of any anima outside of animus. They had a thick on them after last weekend so they showed up tonight.

Why?
Because the reaction of the commentators and panel to that performance would have been entertaining
