Well done to all involved today, five tries, three conversions one straight red and a yellow.

Bit of a mixum gatherum kinda game today, we were consistently on top, dominating the scrum completely, attacking very well and of course (Yeah I know, it’s getting monotonous now) that famous awesome defence. We waffled (About the only nice word I can use) completely in the second half, mixing it in the middle when we should have been kicking ball down the field and pinning Midleton back. To be straight we should have put more on them but that’s semantics and me being a little bit puritan if anything.

Classic moment: The one that will go down in history is when the Midleton pack ran a penalty (One of fourteen against us again today by the way), Bruff put in the tackle, stole the ball and I think I counted 11 passes in seven seconds, ending up in the corner with braq touching down. It was actually awesome (and a little scary if you were from Midleton) to watch.

9 out of 9 for the first XV, and top place confirmed again on the table tonight.

I’m getting the collywobbles already just thinking about it.

I’m sitting here at home getting the gear ready for Thomond Park later on tonight. Thomond Park Crowd

Down to the wire as usual with Munster, and not a straightforward down to the wire either (As usual).

Win and bonus point by 7:15 or so this evening and we’re on the campaign tour trail again. (I’m not going into the maths bit again, there’s a previous post for that CLICK HERE ).  The nervous anticipation has started. I can’t keep my mind on the things I have to do at home before I go  and I’ve not been like this since Cardiff. I’ve packed the camera gear about three times, keep forgetting what I’ve put in and have to keep taking everything out to check for a finish I’ve just dumped everything into the vehicle and I’ll sort it out when I get there.

I’ll get some shots up either tonight or tomorrow after the Bruff Vs. Midleton Match.
