Our man on in the inside is looking into it, but as Browser said it may not be possible, we'll let ye know

there'll be a stream online, not sure if we allowed post links to streaming sites, but if it on TV you'll be able find it online
Are we gonna try get a link to watch it in The Dáil Bar?

Anyone know if game can be viewed on France TV app? It's live on FR4 and beIN which is a pay per view sports broadcaster but looks like you have to be in France for it to work. Any other suggestions greatly appreciated.

Now you understand why I want Masterson in the team, even when he can't be selected...
Thanks so much for the scan Sea-point

Leader most likely , Leydon not a chance. He's been awful both times I've seen him.
A player on current form that won't get a third chance this summer....

In the Rugby Paper match report for Pontypridd, Leydon got joint lowest performance points (with Parata and Nikora). He was awful against Scottish too, at fault for their second try...

Who was (were) the best rated?

Carr, Connolly and Delahunt were 24th man on Saturday so expect to see all three involved this weekend.

Are u sure Naoupu is available despite his hand issue? Need a good rest too... Let's play Fifita in your team

the eagles playing at the weekend is a problem but this is what i would go with

1. Loughney
2. Heffernan
3. Bealham
4. Swift
5. Qualter
6. McKeon
7. Faloon
8. Naopu
9. Blade
10. Ronaldson
11. Carr
12. Finn/McSharry
13. Leader
14. Niyi
15. Mils

Playing Mils and Leader is not as big a risk as it seems, henshaw will be available as cover at 15 for Leinster game

I anticipate a fair number of changes as well. Pat has been saying they are playing to win in this competition but it sounds like it will have to be done with the whole squad as other goals are higher priorities. It is the proper move if the Pro 12 is more important and you plan to head to the RDS looking for a result. If Bayonne field a stronger team and Connacht make wholesale changes I could see the scoreline being reversed but hopefully Pat's influence will prevent this from turning into a Bradley era non-targeted game thrashing.

Looks like Browne is unavailable so hopefully Roux will pull through training this week. Wonder what Ah You's status is, will he be completely rested or be allowed to be on the bench? Muldoon could use a rest as much as anyone though I'm not sure how that will be done while also giving George a rest, maybe Fifita comes in. With no Porter or Cooney Marmion has to start. Can't see Poolman moved to the centre, either rested completely or left on his wing. If Adeolokun is game ready he will spell either Poolman or Healy with maybe Carr on the bench. Leader starting at fullback. Centres are question mark for me. If Henshaw is on track to be fit for the Leinster game I'd run McSharry back out with Ronaldson and Carty at outhalf then maybe slip Mils on the bench since outhalf is already covered.

Yeah yeah I'm always doing the same error, because I want to give him a chance, it's my unconscious at work

Ah didn't look properly at your team Connachta
Don't think Masterson can play as he isn't in the registered EPC Squad

That's why I put him at 13

Think we could see maybe Layden 15 and Leader 13 partnering McSharry?

Also Finn and Qualter could get game time?

You agree with me 13/15 for once! But I thought Niyi might not be ready yet?
