It's a big weekend as we welcome...
It's a big weekend as we welcome back Denis Buckley, a full capicity crowd and the Glasgow Warriors back to the Sportsground. Glasgow are fourth in the URC table, only six points ahead of Connacht so a potentially a big swing if the capicity home crowd gets behind Connacht!

Besides the inter-pros, Glasgow are the team I always want to see us doing well against. Back to back wins in the Pro12 final, first game of the season for a few years, great fans etc. etc.

First thing I will do when I get into Murtys, is Hug the Bar

Anyone know if Fitz is injured? Would have expected him to start,or at least bench this game.
A Connacht is not just for the Xmas Inter-Pros...

Very disappointing result.
Thought forde did OK in the circumstances so well done to that young man.
Outmatched in the forwards again, lineout wax brutal.
That's playoffs/Europe pretty much done for the year with so many away games left.
Could turn into a real grind for the rest of year if we don't get some bodies back soon

TOH had an awful game. Not his first recently. Plenty of options at full back to put in instead of him.

Lots of poor performances tbh - but overall I have to say I'm not TOO disappointed (except for the last 20). Missing our talisman players, no Jack, no Bundee, no Finlay was always going to be a big ask. Marmion was doing his best to boss the lads around, but was always going to be an ask. Thought we were still in the conversation going into the last quarter when, it seemed to me, a lot of the same problems came up again. Seemed to run out of gas, but worse ideas.
I'm not going to be too critical of the players at all: You've a first time out half, some of the rest of the lads have had very limited minutes.
