Ultan Dillane burst through would be tacklers to get Connacht on the front foot. After some efficient recycling Kieran Marmion sniped over to put Connacht back in front.<\/p>\n<p>The home crowd warmly welcomed Bundee Aki onto the field as he returned from injury earlier than expected and within a couple of minutes Connacht had stretched their lead to 12 points.<\/p>\n<p>Bristol had made a raft of changes in the pack, and the western province took full advantage of their now vastly superior scrum to garner a 7-point penalty try.<\/p>\n<h5>Ambitious<\/h5>\n<p>The visitor&#8217;s were nothing if not ambitious with ball in hand and their ambition led to their second try.<\/p>\n<p>Mat Protheroe appeared to be well covered when he received the ball just outside the Connacht 22. However, he slalomed his way through the slightly soft defence to score a cracking try and there was only a score between the sides.<\/p>\n<p>The home team restored their 2 score advantage not long afterwards.<\/p>\n<p>The second wave of changes had found their feet after a few minutes. Replacement outhalf Steve Crosbie did well to get the ball to zippy new signing Rory Scholes for the Ulster man to snaffle his second try in two matches for his new team.<\/p>\n<h5>Final score<\/h5>\n<p>That was the final score of the match, Connacht winning 24 points to 14.<\/p>\n<p>Eoin Masterson grew in stature the longer the game progressed.<br \/>\nEoin Griffin was steadiness personifies while Craig Ronaldson and Jack Carty provided calm, assured control while they were on the field.<\/p>\n<p>Tom McCartney, Andrew Browne and John Muldoon showed controlled, aggressive leadership throughout.<br \/>\nBundee was a bundle of energy. While the rest of the substitutes brought fresh impetus to what was an impressive display of a team who really worked hard for each for the whole match.<\/p>\n<p>Both KK and Jarrad were effusive about the vocal support they received from the home crowd, they ain&#8217;t seen, or heard, nothing yet.<\/p>\n<h5><strong>Scoring sequence:<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>4&#8242;
