I'm happy with the team but why Kearney at 6 and McCarthy at 5? It's dumb. Come on EE if we want to win games we need to play players in their best positions and that's Kearney in the second row!

I know what your saying, and with things all equal and great, it makes sense, but McCarthy is probably a better and stronger scrummager than the younger Kearney. Mike will continue to boss the lineout as well.

They're lucky to be down just 9, as bad as I've seen them all season and that is saying something considering they've lost 12 straight.

Ref is giving us nothing but that is no excuse at all.
15 professional players and are playing this bad. How can they change so much from last week.
Pack is poor, back 3 are poor.
Big change needed in second half

Same as all the previous games, same mistakes...very frustrating to watch.
The handling has been terrible, as soon as something looks promising the ball is knocked on...too many high risk passes being thrown,
Not sure what duffy was at kicking the ball away when on their 5 yard line. The forwards need to step up nd do a bit more work in the tight, they are trying to win the game out wide without -_-ing in anyone first. Aironi arent committing to the rucks and are sliding across shutting Connacht down all to easily.

I wouldn't blame Duffy there. Yes, any other team I would cringe if they kicked it there, but Connacht have not proven they can punch the ball in once they get inside their opponents 22.
Really hope Eric his handing each and everyone of them their a$$ right now.

That try was deserved. Considering turning off now. That break by the 8 from the scrum was a joke
