Connacht getting f'd in the b again. From a more positive point of view, hopefully, it'll be good for Irish teams to be regularly up against the monster Saffa packs. Think in the long run we need to find a way to beat these physically bigger teams and now we'll have plenty of opportunity. Of course they could just do to us what we've being doing to the rest of the league but lets not dwell on that.
The result today was good (in a way) for the South African teams, they will now know that they can't just turn up and win.
I don't buy into those who say that the South African teams won't strengthen this new comp. They are all (with the possible exception of the Lions) better than the Cheetahs who were a mid ranking Pro 14 team. I expect them still to be some of the better teams in this new comp.
