Bit of pushing and shoving there

Ofisa Treviranus is stopped just short of the line but May manages to come away with the ball for Gloucester

Humphreys's attempt at goal goes to the left after Morgan had been pinged for collapsing the maul

A series of kick exchanges end with a Gloucester line out inside the home half

Irish attack early on

Great half for Gloucester keep it up boys

And that kick from Twelvetrees to make it 16-7 is the final act of the first half. Irish started brightly but it has been the away side who have looked the better in this opening period. Irish need to step it up if they hope to win this

Why is cj not starting at tight head for Irish? Has he not recovered from his calf issue??

If Gloucester handling gets better they will win

Penalty gloucester
