Connacht 29-12 Sharks (European Rugby Challenge Cup Commentary with Rob Murphy and Joe Healy)

Connacht  are through to the European EPCR Challenge Cup quarter-finals for the third consecutive year after running in four tries to beat South Africa's Sharks at Dexcom Stadium on Friday (3rd April 2026).

Chay Mullins went over the whitewash in the first half to leave Connacht just 12-7 down at half-time; before Cathal Forde crossed the line twice in the second period, and Shamus Hurley-Langton added another to maintain his good form.

Galway Bay FM's match commentary team were Rob Murphy and Joe Healy.
