**After a long summer break, Connacht and Glasgow Warriors treated us to a new-season classic on the opening day of the 2018-19 Guinness PRO14.** Six tries, six penalties and a late drop goal ensured their clash at the Sportsground will not be easily forgotten. And, with the current season set to resume after a long hiatus, now is the perfect time to re-live it. **The build-up** As always on the opening day of a new campaign, optimism was high for both sides. The Warriors were excellent in 2017-18 and topped the Conference A table, only to fall at the hands of an inspired Scarlets in the semi-finals. Connacht, meanwhile, won just six of their 21 matches and finished sixth in the same conference, but had overseen a squad overhaul, with the likes of JP Cooney and John Muldoon retiring.
