Just a quick note - I've deleted any urls that pointed to placed you could get the match. I've left up the comments surrounding it, VPNs and the like cause there'd be no infringement there.

Just to be clear: Technically we shouldn't have any of that info on the site at all, but because the match wasn't available anywhere else AND that's the method we were using in Murtys, we said we'd leave it up so that people had the option. Don't want to leave that info up for obvious reasons!

Any hassles, do let me know!

Made it back, despite the outcome it was a fun trip - ended up bumping into More Miles.

Also got chatting to one of the guys from the zebre supporters club who gave the zebre president a call to see what was happening with the game (would it be continued on the sunday or postponed til Spring).

the weather was mental - got sunburnt in the afternoon and then the rain and hail came out of nowhere. The zebre fans I spoke to were gutted - based on the first have they were confident that they'd win easily enough.

On the upside, my ticket for the match is valid for the rescheduled game!

i suggest a weekend over at inish bofin. team building would be finding your players, not in a line, but simply finding them:)

Lucky is not the word to describe that. If the previous two games didn't get them starting to focus I don't see that half of rugby doing it.

There's a serious mental block in Connacht at the moment. Communication non existent, defensive organisation non existent, the option of runners shoulders aren't there.

I'm starting to worry if I'm honest. Players don't become bad over night but when a funk sets in it definitely doesn't get fixed overnight

If that were a bigger team leading three tries to one at home you'd have to think they'd give it another twenty minutes for the weather to clear up.

We got out of jail tonight. And the next game is Scarlets who are having almost as bad a start to the season. So maybe we can still get the season started....

But.....

Wow!! Zebre have no luck, i actually feel a little bad for them. Beating the champs would have been a real lift for them.

We got out of jail, big time! But whats going on with this team, some serious questions need to be asked, otherwise we are only putting this hiding off for another day!

Think this is the standard rules regarding abandoned games :
"If a match is abandoned because of weather conditions when 60 or more minutes have been played, then the score at the moment of abandonment will be deemed the final score of the match. If the match is abandoned before 60 minutes have been played, the match will be replayed in its entirety from opening kickoff. The Referee’s decision will be final as to the match being abandoned due to weather conditions as well as the time of the abandonment"
