ddfg Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 Agree with the above assessment, just hope we can get a few injuries sorted and can get a slightly stronger bench than last night, where we didn't really didn't have much to offer.What was the story with the Bennett injury last night, we were too far away to get a good view and it looked to start with as if the ref signalled a penalty to Glasgow and then restarted with a scrum? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely the percentage game would have been to keep possession and try and draw a penalty or set up a drop goal attempt. These wee chips are great when they come off but how often is that and I can only imagine teams will be getting wise to him now. Still looking forward to next weekend in Leicester, free digs with the in laws for the weekend and the results today seem to going Glasgows way It was madness, frustration I suspect. It is a tactic of Glasgow against a fast line. 35 minutes ago, ddfg said: Agree with the above assessment, just hope we can get a few injuries sorted and can get a slightly stronger bench than last night, where we didn't really didn't have much to offer.

Was that not the Swinson / Murray incident. Touch judge stopped it because Murray was out cold, ref went penalty by error. He was allowed back onto pitch after passing HIA1 and 2 which was disgraceful. World Rugby are going to investigate the incident as any player knocked out should not be put through an HIA but withdrawn. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep he should have been hooked immediately. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

honestly united Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Win at Leicester and were going to get one of Clermont, Saracens / Toulouse, Wasps / Connaught or Leinster (assuming we avoid Munster in the quarters). More likely to be Clermont, Leinster or Saracens if they win. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Connolly Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 I see noted supporter of fair play Alan Quinlan has had a dig at Glasgow's "treatment" of Connor Murray. http://www.independent.ie/sport/rugby/champions-cup/alan-quinlan-you-always-target-players-but-what-glasgow-did-to-conor-murray-was-cynical-and-dangerous-35369920.html 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northsea80 Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 It's an article about nothing. Criticises three incidents then says on second viewing they aren't as bad as they initially looked. We know Glasgow are doing something right when we get the Irish in a flap. They realise we're a real threat to them now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogmc Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 Munster allowing Murray to play on after being knocked out was far more dangerous than anything Glasgow did. None of the tackles on Murray were illegally late, the players were legitimately committed. He also got himself knocked out twice by tackling like an idiot. Oh and the likes of quinlan n munster calling Glasgow out for cynical is like the Yorkshire ripper slagging off benny hill for his attitude to women. Irish teams have had too many pet refs in Pro12 and encountering actual neutral ones in Europe is a shock to their system. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shock, horror, opposition try to unsettle one of other teams best players, why hasn't someone thought of that before last Saturday? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

honestly united Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 Only surprise is Dickinson missing, is he still injured and going to miss the 6 nations? I would also have included another fly half, either Jackson or Horne as you know Weir isn't going to get on if he is on the bench. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaggy Snake Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 I'm obviously not saying he should be there (and could theoretically still be called up as cover once injured players drop out) but other than when he was injured in 2008, I think that’s the first six nations squad since 2004 not to include Sean Lamont. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
