Too much envy on this thread cos he's got hair, one wag behind us said he looked like Harry Potter. Think he'll need to get his wand out and conjure up a new back row for Friday night, and if that works maybe a new front one as well

Just caught up with today's game, huge disappointment to suffer a result like that at home. Rennie hasn't quite flung in the towel yet but going by his comments he's keeping it handy.

Gutter of a defeat for Benetton, going down 29-30 at home to Toulon with the visitors kicking a last minute penalty.

4 wins could be enough to see us get through as best 2nd place. Hopefully if Montpellier have chucked it we can get 2 big wins to get us started


Montpellier home and away is definitely possible. Ie. I think we play them at home first? 5 points there and they will chuck away tie. Exeter at home if we have something to play for could bag us 5... away 4 against leinster bags us 19 points.
Possible 19 will be enough...
The positivity is coming back :lol:

Was at the game on Saturday.  We weren't at the races and were deservedly hammered I'm afraid.  We're unbeaten domestically inc. at home vs Munster but Europe is a different animal.  A switch seems to go and the intensity increases.  To match that you need a competitive pack but we got blown away.  Same pack barring Gordy and Strauss and Alex allan and Ashe are able deputies respectively, so my guess is that it could be a coaching issue.  Dave Rennie needs to have a meeting with the forwards coaches and go mental with them. 

If you've visited the Glasgow Warriors FB page you'll notice that there's debates and about who're the better supporters based on streams of people leaving early.  There was a mass exodus when Leinster got the BP try with about 4 mins left.

The players need to be out for revenge when they visit in the league next weekend.  Until then, bouncing back with 5 points vs the Southern Kings on Friday night is a must.

The Edinburgh game v krasny is on YouTube. On app so can't link to it. The Russian commentary is still better than sky! How stade francais could have lost to them is beyond me. They were brave enough n tackled all day but struggled at contact area and had little pace. Cochrane put on an utter masterclass of both hooking n lineout throwing. Kinghorn n bressler showed up really well.
