The second half breakthrough - and the score that put some distance between hosts and visitors - came when Conway sprinted up his wing and dove onto a grubber kick from Ian Keatley that had deceived Tiernan O'Halloran.
That score all but did for battle-weary Connacht. Conway featured in a lovely move that set up a try for Keith Earls in the left-hand corner. Keatley and Rory Scannell also featured in the lovely set-play.
Quinn Roux was yellow-carded, soon after, for a tip tackle on Earls [landing on his shoulder] and Munster immediately made the man advantage count - Murray sniping over. The scrum-half repeated the dose with 10 minutes to play and it was starting to get ugly.

Leinster's Jordan Larmour has flung his name into the selection mix with two stunning performances - against Munster and Ulster - over the holidays and there is suddenly a queue for Ireland's No.15 jersey.
Conway will be hoping to stake his claim further in the Champions Cup pool games. He is in red-hot form right now.Brilliant footage shows Toulon doing training drills on Dublin street ahead of Leinster loss
