Im sure it was his quick ball that ended up winning the match for us. The longer Tomás gets the first pick the harder Peter works. He is a true munster great.

The Clermont supporters were great. As Sniffle says, the winners of this year's competition were in TP on Saturday, but if Clermont can do that much damage with fourteen men, I don't think Montauban and Sale have any reason to be relaxing over Christmas.

Ten minutes to go and we were lucky to only be two points down with no hope of a score. Mercifully, Stringers belated introduction saw a much quicker delivery. I know O'Leary saved a definite try earlier but his passing is far too slow - why he needs to take a step before leaving the ball out to the backs is a habit he'd better shake off. Otherwise, another close call at home, starting to look more vulnerable there, but as Sniffle said, some of these guys aren't spring chickens anymore. Incidentally, what fucking genius gave that lunatic "cheerleader" a microphone to annoy the fuck and piss off everyone before the game and more-so at half-time. Christ, he was embarrassing enough with his "everybody in the West Stand....loud as you can.. M-U-N-S-T-E-R" bollocks. But at half time calling for a bonus point !! and then introducing "A German man from Germany" Blood Pressure was well up long before Clermont came out and ran rings around our fifteen for most of the second half. Incidentally, commiserations but also compliments to the visiting Clermont support, proved to be a great crowd and very fond of the local brew and a few songs too. Couldn't believe what happened.

Clermont are potential winners of the entire competition with a much bigger budget to run the team and undoubted depth of talent in their entire squad. Anytime, anyday, anyhow we manage to beat a team of this quality is a good day. We soaked up everthing they threw at us, classic, and when we visited their 22 we came away with points. Ronan was not his usual reliable best and this made matters closer than usual. I thought we played well. Have to agree with Sniffle.

This helps. Of course if it’s not true, then our sacred cows, who owe us nothing, well……….., they can’t be automatic selections anymore. So ROG is 31 you know, and our front five have more miles on them now then a fleet of retiring Ryanair jets so…………… Well, as long as the winner of the competition was on the field last Saturday…………….. But here’s another thing, Mushie and Donnacha should have been introduced earlier and I’m 100% certain that Leamy being out isn’t helping, nor Rua either.

A win's a win. But mind the blood pressure! "from a team who nearly beat the All Blacks only a few weeks ago"… without the players from the national side…
