Connacht meanwhile had a tough day at the office losing 29-7 away from home against Cardiff Blues.
It took the away side 55 minutes to get on the score sheet as Conor Oliver crossed over to make the score 10-7 to Cardiff.
From there the home side scored three tries in a row, as Connacht could not deal with Cardiff's power.
Things do not get any easier for the men from the west as they travel to Edinbrugh next time out on October 25th.
