Should be a UBB win with Penaud and Le Beep Beep causing havoc, hopefully.

Munster must have the best travelling support in club rugby

What a try. Munster completely outclassed at the moment.

That was an absurd juggling intercept from LBB. Almost everything's working for Bordeaux at the moment.

Munster were lucky to escape without a card at the breakdown over on this side of the pitch

Oh they've scored anyway

Munster have little pace out wide and it's hurting them.

They also have no answer to the rapidity of Bordeaux's offloading game.

Let's hope this is bye to Munster. Horrible side like LaR: both have stunk up the comp. this season.

Why does Stephen Ferris have a commentary career? He's bloody awful and generally pretty biased.

You should have heard him before he really toned it down - he was basically sat there shouting "AAAHHHLLLSTURR AAAHHHLLLSTURR"

That should be another card for a penalty on the line there

Games gone a bit with all these cards. Scoreline flatters Munster.

Ben Whitehouse (touch judge) said that it has to be a "possible" not a "probable" for a penalty try - I have never heard that before, I've only ever heard it described as a probable

UBB won't win anything with this level of indiscipline. As for Jalibert: actually getting flakier.

Conceding to 13 like that is poor.

Lucu was terrific and Le Beep Beep pops up with a score. But the discipline from both teams was terrible.

I think he was just highlighting the difference between possible and probable. I think he was disagreeing with the refs decision, just in the right way.

While it's not one I would have awarded, nor most refs I think, I can kind of see where he was coming from - there was 18 odd meters of lateral space, with the cover defenders a few more meters laterally infield. If he just bolted to the corner after receiving the ball he definitely had a chance. Probable definitely stretching things though.

Can't believe that's being let go. It might not be head contact, but it was a clear swinging arm from Castres 13.

How is it a Catres penalty when Langdon's obstructed from clearing out by the tackler?

Not that it's mattered. some lovely interplay down the touchline for Freeman to get yet another try.

Didn't need Furbank on after 4 minutes after months out.

That has to be pen try surely because it's an illegal action that puts Saints' 6 into touch?
