Apparently they always lose when he's the ref. Lee Jones was good tonight. Where does everyone think he's sitting in regards to Scotland now? Behind Maitland, Seymour and probably Visser I'd guess, but I reckon he's above Hoyland now, and definitely ahead of Hughes. Jones is a star. Completely underrated. If I was a Scotland selector I'd have him high up there. Different style from Maitland and Seymour. He's good under the high ball, can defend and has pace to burn.

Surely a 3rd pro Scottish team would be better than this. Kings are struggling, but I think they can improve. Looking at Edinburgh we can't judge! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
honestly united Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Hopefully Dunbar is back in time for the November internationals. When are Huw Jones and Bennett back from injury? If all 3 are out Taylor and Grigg would be an interesting combination with Horne back up but after that we would be short on centres As an aside, does anyone know when Thompson joins us from SA? He looked good while on loan last year, coming straight into the side and fitting in well, also bonus of apparently being Scotland qualified 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be wrong though cos sure he was in the recent Scotland training camp 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WP might qualify for finals (bit touch and go, depends on next 2 results against Bulls and Lions. Last round robin games are 14th October, with 21st and 28th for Semi-Finals and Final respectively. Brandon Thompson arrived on the 28th of August because he was introduced at the members event that night as 'just off a plane'. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
honestly united Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 I just assumed as when Jones got injured in March it said he would not be back in training for 5 months with a hamstring tear he was still out. Good he is backing playing, would be better if it was in a Glasgow jersey rather than WP. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could help with Finn's consistently training with him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mind you, Finns performances against Racing last year were there for everyone to see. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ayrunitedfw Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 Bit late to the party but Friday nights performance was simply delightful, granted Munster were not at full strength but neither were we, off the top of my head Alex Dunbar, Huw Jones, Tommy Seymour, Fraser Brown, Johnny Gray all didnt play who you'd expect to be starters when fit. Racing 92 can get in the fucking sea. I never want Finn Russell to leave. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mind you, Finns performances against Racing last year were there for everyone to see. He is. Suspect he convinced Donnacha Ryan to move too (no doubt helped with cash!). I feel it is rather foregone, Glasgow need to get best of players then let them move for cash, reinvesting it going forward. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
come on shire Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 (edited) I really hope the SRU break the bank to keep Finn. He's one of the best players to come out of the country in years. However, let's not forget that Ali Price and Jonny Gray come out of contract at the end of this season too and the budget can only stretch so far. It's an argument for the idea that the SRU should be open to outside investment and potentially even selling the pro teams if the right money and the right business plan comes along. Obviously a motion along those lines was passed just a few months ago so hopefully it pays dividends in the near future. As for the short term we host a major banana skin on Friday night as Benneton Treviso have enjoyed 2 wins on the bounce. We need to win and a winning BP would be handy to boot so hopefully a strong team's out. Rumour has it that Fraser Brown will be back which is a boost. Lucky I'm a season ticket holder as the game's not on TV though Edinburgh's trip to Leinster is.

dogmc Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 Actually dont mind finn moving as it will broadenbhus horizons and presumably bring in a tidy transfer fee. He does however have to somewhere that will suit his style of play. No point in a side signing finn just to play warrenball. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
