For feck's sake:

Listen live to BBC Radio Scotland FM via your PC. Please note, that programmes carried on BBC Radio Scotland MW are not available to listen live online.

www.bbc.co.uk/radioscotland/about_us/

I never thought I'd say it, but RTE are way ahead of them on this front (except of course they're not broadcasting it).

OK, I can't seem to figure out how to get Radio Scotland MW online.
I can only get FM.

I know how daft that sounds. It's not like I have a frequency dial on my browser.

If anyone figures it out, send me a postcard.

They will probably focus more on Scarlets v Glasgow but it's our best bet.

That game starts earlier so should definitely get the last 25 minutes. Instead of frantically clicking the refresh button on rabodirectpro12.com a la Cardiff.

That or the irritating twitter reload sound

@Rossgard13 Hi Ross, unfortunately not, it's live on BBC Radio Scotland if you can't make it to Murrayfield #BlackNRedArmy

@CharlesPettie BBC Radio Scotland will be covering both ours and Glasgow's games on the Friday night rugby show @BBCRugbyScot

looks like pinky is correct. its also handy to follow @edinburghrugby on twitter as i think they tweet live. for some reason, connacht's tweets are usually 2mins delayed

They did this last season, at least at the start of the season. They were sponsored by Rabodirect too, not sure why they stopped doing it.

one thing i dont understand is why oh why dont galway bay fm go to away matches when there is no tv. they would get big numbers. wouldnt cost much sending rob to go over.

they cover home games, BUT so do tg4. if your sitting at home, radio and tv in front of you, which do you pick? tv 99.99999999% of the time.

Fraid not, wont be on radio either I don't think

Is dis in da telly at all?

It will be interesting to see how Fifita makes out should he come on.

I was really impressed with his support running last week with the Eagles, he obviously learned something as a back. Hope he has a great game.

Hope the squad fancies its chance better than the posters here. While there's no denying Connacht's poor away form, it's still a decent team being named. My biggest concern would be how many are just getting over the flu or may just start showing symptoms tomorrow. Maybe Parks will have a bit of a chip on his shoulder on his return to Scotland (believe it's his first trip back to Murrayfield since last year's England match) and have one of his better games of the season. He could be a difference maker.
