Looks like this game is gone away from Connacht now.
6 points down, Carty kicked a ball dead which could easily have gone for a 50/22. Resulting Tigers penalty from the scum pushes them out to 9points.

Dillane leaving Connacht at the end of the season.

La Rochelle is his most likely destination.

Best of luck to him, writing is on the wall from an Irish perspective, may as well go chase the cash now, he’s the type of lock that should do very well in France.
Very unlucky with Ireland, had injuries at bad times and then never really got a start with the full strength sides when he more than deserved it

Criminally under used at times when we had few options. It was always absurd that Roux was getting in ahead of him.

Good article on Jack McGraths hip problems.
Didn't realise he was so crocked.

'I literally couldn’t walk to the shop. I’d walk 50 yards and I’d be in bits'

If you had thought Jack McGrath had fallen off the edge of the earth then don’t feel badly about it. That’s the description he uses himself.
