Another absolute CRACKER 💥 Who else is loving the return of URC?

[@conorcahill5422]

Game of the round right there. That was a proper interpro derby between both teams and with how little time they had to prepare for the opener, to produce quality like that is very promising for the new URC season. Munster for #5!

[@Logies_right_hand]

Glasgow fan here…..what a game, some brilliant rugby played by both teams. Great advert for the URC

[@ashleigh3021]

Looks better for Connacht than anything. Munster still failing show any sense of getting near Leinsters record number of URCs.

[@thamzafaniso]

Wow! The highlights have improved. Keep it up!👏🏾

[@johnryan509]

Great match. Ioane looking like a good signing for Connacht. Also, much better highlight packages this year!

[@readesiun988]

Leinster man here, great game, was hoping for a draw in the end , but congrats to Munster for getting over the line, hard luck Connacht, looking real good.

[@timculhane4633]

As a munster man I was really impressed with connacht. They will cause trouble to plenty of teams this season 🔥🔥

[@superfunreactions8448]

Who ever is doing the highlights, Thank you, much better then last year.

[@borgig]

URC this is proper highlights. Great to see & hopefully it continues !!!!

[@AoifeCiste]

What an incredible match! My Dad and I were there and our hearts were in our mouths! CMON MUNSTER!!!

[@Camcolito]

How good were Murphy and Ioane?

[@conormarren]

Connacht have some fantastic signings! And Hawkshaw.. what a player

[@dillynlakey6420]

never watched the match, but connacht are looking smooth on attack.

[@DarraghGlynn]

Loved the highlights, make em longer and keep em coming!

[@james_andrews98]

What a game this was. So good to see so many big plays from 9s across the URC and Premiership Rugby

[@Camcolito]

What a game! Season has started with a bang.

[@markbutler1616]

Two great sides not afraid to ask questions from each other💪💪💥💥Smashing to watch and much credit to both teams.

[@mrhennessy2307]

Fairplay Connacht. It's rare to hear Thomond so noisy that early in the season, a testament to the intensity and excitement you brought. That 9-10 combo and beastly power at 13 will serve you well for the season. Nanks, Haley, Daly - unreal. Craig - great control and opportunism. Farrel, great debut. Forwards - great physicality. Hon the lads!

[@OscarOSullivan]

A very porous looking Munster defence

[@JJ82IOE]

Longer highlights!!! Finally :))

[@oldershikari828]

Praises for not putting the result in the title!

[@Natedawg38]

Highlights were the victory here.

[@danfinn3132]

Yup....

[@wesleyfoley5116]

Coombes is growing into a huge man

[@neilmontgomery3470]

What a great game. Neither team deserved to lose.

[@bikeman9899]

Wonderful match!

[@alansmall8844]

Great game. Well done Munster

[@IrishInsomniac76]

Great attack from both sides but the defence coaches have some work to do

[@88Eoghan]

Are we Super Rugby now?

[@Camcolito]

@@88Eoghan Yeah I was thinking that watching the game too, looked like a stereotypical Super Rugby match lol. Still, no complaints from this neutral.

[@kurtjetson1284]

Looked like a great game.

[@westscotindex8972]

As a neutral, that was quite a game to watch.

[@MeiA-h9r]

Nankivel would look awesome in an All Black jersey😢

[@TheGaetano62]

What a match 🎉

[@misterkunnyfunt]

bangin game.

[@martyodoherty4236]

Great game

[@obaraabraham9934]

A worthy match.

[@danfinn3132]

Yep. Can't wait for the South Africans next week....😊

[@Musicaldg1980]

Great match. I see other comments praising the highlights but I must say I still don't see it. The fact that they didn't show Craig Casey's tap and go for the 3rd try seems crazy. The build up play is just as important as the player going over the line. Also, the TMO stuff is still far too long as well. We don't need 3 or 4 re-plays of the same incident. I'd strong suggest watching NFL highlights to see how it's done.

[@fuzzylogiceire]

Ben Murphy looked good in this game, I assume he's still second choice to Blade?

[@IHeartDenny]

Matthew Devine would also be ahead of Ben Murphy, but picked up an injury last weekend. Murphy’s chances have improved after that performance.

[@fuzzylogiceire]

@@IHeartDenny Thanks

[@donalmaceoin]

He looked great but so did blade when he came on. His try should have been chalked off for a knock on

[@IHeartDenny]

@@donalmaceoin the try was correctly awarded after an intervention from the TMO. Chris Busby had initially called a knock on, but ionane's pass was backwards and as Murphy picked it up it hit a Munster shoulder and went back to him. Perfectly good try.

[@donalmaceoin]

​​@@IHeartDennyit hit Murphys hand then munster shoulder. In the rules that's a knock on. If the ball touches the ground or the opposition it's a knock on. www.world.rugby/the-game/laws/definitions

[@niallmacceide4603]

Munster could have no complaints if they'd lost this game. Their defence was very very sloppy.

[@donalmaceoin]

Except for the 2nd Connacht try where the Tmo had a howler

[@Robbie7441]

sa a munster supporter, i think connacht should have won.

[@donalmaceoin]

2nd Connacht try a clear knock on. Why did the tmo ignore the refs question?

[@flinfaraday1821]

These guys are gona wipe the floor with the South Africans.

[@thamzafaniso]

It's only the first game of the season ffs!

[@michaelmoynihan9591]

Stop the lights kid .clueless comment sa have good teams.too early to tell. Don't be so biased.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@sk-23.]

Your comment is a 50/50 split between arrogance and ignorance - could almost be the work of a Bok when they inevitably begin bangin' on about world cups or something that happened twenty years ago. Give yourself a break ffs.

Rolling the hand grenade onto the table, there, buachaill beag.
