•
Munster were put to the sword at the Sportsground on Saturday night in comprehensive fashion as Connacht completed the season double over their southern neighbours and moved closer to securing a play off spot. The 35-14 victory should leave no one in any doubt now that Pat Lam's men are a top four side and well ahead of the field this season. There's a pumper crew on this week's podcast. Alan Deegan and William Davies take you through the game in their own usual style, host Rob Murphy and regular guests Linley MacKenzie, Dave Finne and Niall Sheil join in for the post game chat. Plus. We hear post game audio from Pat Lam, Finlay Bealham and Anthony Foley. Help Craggy Rugby grow, Like us on Facebook, rate us on itunes, follow us on twitter.
