We need to beat this team, and beat them convincingly.  I believe I heard that 12 of their players are away at the World Cup (someone correct me if I'm wrong).  As Eric Elwood said at the sponsor launch, you must take advantage of facing the teams who have been hit hard by World Cup selection.

Sounded like a tough kick. Perhaps should have put it down the line. Can't fault them for trying though!

This Dudley fellow is one poor excuse for a referee.

He is useless and not to welcome to the sportsground. He ref the last match in limerick last season but none off what he did make any sense

Connacht get away with scrappy defending. A penalty in a good position given for a pulled down maul. The kick drifted wide.

Connacht now had opted for a scrum on the Treviso's 15m line.

Hearing the radio commentators go on and on about the extreme temperatures is amusing to me as a Connacht Clansman who spent most of my life in the southeastern United States where temperatures were ROUTINELY topped 40 degrees...not that I miss that.

Fa-afili giving a penalty for chat! Not on. This is a competitive game, need to keep the mouth shut and concentrate on the game.
