5/10 A well-deserved player of the match, Prendergast was all over the park against Munster. He got under the skin of the visitors with his physicality and breakdown efforts, and added his strength and speed to the carries well as well. Conor Oliver 7. 5/10 The 26-year-old Oliver was bore the brunt of the carrying duties for the loose trio, making the big carries to open up space out wide. He made a great number of tackles over and above his offensive efforts, and was involved in everything good that Connacht put together. Jarrad Butler 7/10 The powerful number eight carried well throughout the match. He was second only to Oliver in terms of meters made by a forward. However, he will want to improve on defence as he was overly involved in keeping Connacht's tryline secure. Kieran Marmion 7.
5/10 Marmion wanted to speed up play from the beginning and sniped well on the fringes. He was fiery with ball in hand, added pace to the attack with every breakdown, and was unlucky not to cross over the line for a try himself in the second half after a brilliant break. Jack Carty 6/10 Carty's return from injury was marred by a lack of overall flair and excitement from both sides, as the aggression of the interpro took over the match. While he looked to unlock the Munster defence with some clever passing and offloading, it ultimately led to nothing, and Carty was subbed off shortly before half time with a head injury. Mack Hansen 6. 5/10 Making his first appearance since Connacht's loss to Leinster, Hansen looked electric every touch of the ball, but took a while to find the gaps in the Munster defence.

Connacht looked to speed up play from the beginning of the match, putting pressure on the Munster defence. It was the boot of Jack Carty that got the hosts on the board. The lead was immediately crossed off by Munster, however, as Ben Healy slotted a penalty shortly after the restart. With all the play going the way of Connacht, it was a lapse in judgment from Mack Hansen that resulted in a charge down and try for Andrew Conway to put Munster in the lead. With the momentum swinging in favour of the visitors, Connacht conceded a number of penalties inside their 22m area, resulting in the sin-binning of Oisin Dowling.
GUINNESS PRO14 Preview: Connacht v Munster - Irish Rugby
Connacht Rugby vs Munster Rugby match in Galway, Ireland.
Tiernan O'Halloran 6/10 O'Halloran was on the pitch for 80 minutes. That is about as far as his involvement in this derby match went as he was hardly ever tested at the back, and only made one run of any significance, in which he gained around six meters after beating a lazy defender. Munster Player Ratings Dave Kilcoyne 6/10 The Munster scrum struggled throughout the match, with Kilcoyne and Stephen Archer not meshing together in the front row against a fired up Connacht side. The 33-year-old prop was not seen much with ball in hand, but did put in the work on defence with a solid, if not spectacular performance. Niall Scannell 7/10 Scannell was a rare shining light at the Sportground for the men in red as he was not only an attacking threat, but a defensive wall as well.
Arnold was almost non-existent for the hosts on attack, and was seldom tested defensively as Munster struggled to get solid possession out to their backline. John Porch 6. 5/10 With the electric Hansen on the pitch, it is difficult for the winger on the other side to really shine. While Porch did carry for a relatively good number of meters given his few involvements, it was not a night for the Australian Sevens star to write home about.
He made a few defensive and overall errors, one of which led directly to the opening try for the visitors. He made up for it shortly before half time, however, when he chased down a full-flight Conway to prevent his second score. Bundee Aki 7/10 While Connacht could have benefited more from Aki's power in the midfield, the Irish international did defend his channel very well, most notably securing a key turnover in the first half deep inside his own territory. In an usual try for the big centre, he scored the only try of the match for his side by entering the world of the forwards. Sam Arnold 6/10 Without seeing his name on the teamsheet, one could forgiven for questioning who Connacht's outside centre was against Munster.
