flyingscot Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 (edited) Big Brian Alainu'uese has his suspension reduced, which is probably correct. Eligible for Leicester. Glasgow pick pretty much their first XV for Munster game. Only first teamers missing are injuries/suspensions. Presume Pyrgos is injured (apparently a knee injury)?

Bully Wee Villa Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Why do they write the numbers in a funny order? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogmc Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Why do they write the numbers in a funny order? It's the split between forwards n backs. Looks a really strong line up. In an ideal world a really strong ref to deal with the inevitable munster cheating at scrums n mauls, Glasgow score 4 tries and beat munster by at least 8 points. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingscot Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Unless I am missing something it is a completely Scottish 23! (OK Strauss is a stretch but...) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No sure bout D'Arcy rae. In fairness to strauss he's no less eligible that swinson or Pyrgos. Either way though very encouraging. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Scottish Qualified 23 is better given Rugby these days! Edited January 13, 2017 by flyingscot 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CK Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Unless I am missing something it is a completely Scottish 23! (OK Strauss is a stretch but...) Yip. 20 of the 23 are full Scottish caps, Rae and Fagerson Jnr have been capped at age grade level and Grigg is a 7s cap (and trained with Scotland squad during Autumn internationals). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good stuff then. Who did Murchie play against ( genuinely don't remember him playing). It's even better that's it's give or take a few injuries almost Glasgows strongest squad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ajwffc Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 They point out it is a fully Scottish international 23 on there twitter fed and Pyrgos has a knee injury Not available due to injury: Scott Cummings (shoulder), Simone Favaro (ankle), Jarrod Firth (neck), Peter Horne (knee/ankle), Rory Hughes (knee), Sean Lamont (back), Greg Peterson (shoulder), Henry Pyrgos (knee), Sila Puafisi (concussion), Leonardo Sarto (shoulder), Matt Smith (shoulder), Tjiuee Uanivi (shoulder) and Richie Vernon (shoulder). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dogmc Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Wait we've capped hart??? How many scrum halves were injured?? I'd have had iain milne start at 9 ahead of him [emoji2] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd have had iain milne start at 9 ahead of him [emoji2] He got 66 min of game time with one start ( came off after 47min) in our tour of America and South Africa in 2014. Laidlaw started the first two games with Hart getting 5min at the end of the second game(at fly half after a Canadian player knockout Ruaridh Jackson while trying trying to fend him off). He started the 3rd game with Pyrgos coming on as sub and a 14min sub appearance in the last game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah....that was the tour where everyone got capped except me n we fielded our weakest team of the tour v saffers. I'd blocked it out [emoji23] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingscot Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Hart might be a nice guy but he is woefully short of talent. Glasgow were meant to get him but he was sent to Edinburgh. We got Nico Matawalu instead. Yeah. Kentale however must not be thought much of.... I'd even have George Horne ahead of Hart. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
