I can't really get the major seethe either tbh, it's not as if it was a controversial decision, it was as clear a red card as you will ever see. He's been asked to pose for a photo and did so, he can't win, if he tells them to feck off he probably gets slagged all over Twitter too. Aye if a similar thing happened in football nothing would be said about it.... It was terrible judgement from a guy who has shown poor judgement in the past. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Detournement Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 The only teams ahead of Glasgow last year were Saracens and Leinster both of whom constantly add quality and don't lose their best players. Glasgow can't compete with that. The lack of quality signings the last two summers means there is a chance they are about to fall off a cliff. The first 23 is still strong though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
honestly united Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 1 hour ago, Snobot said: Bit of revisionism here. Cummings is first choice miles ahead of Swinson now. Our starting centres are better, although to be fair Bennet and Dunbar were actually first choice in 2015. Our first choice and second 9’s are better now. Kebble v Reid? Fagerson v de Klerk? Brown v Hall? Turner / Stewart v MacArthur? Hogg is a generational player so v hard to replace, as is Nakawara, who funnily enough wasn’t always first pick and would often try the miracle ball once too often, but no doubting his display in the final was something else. If we can replace Strauss (I like M Fagerson a lot) and get a better FB we are in a decent place. The fact is the club model is generally not to spend big on big time players, Jones aside who has been disappointing. Last season was the second best year in the history of the club, a one score defeat in final and a European quarter final appearance, unfortunately against the worst possible opponent for us Totally forgot about Cummings tbh. I think last year was a strange one, I dont think Glasgow played well, although obviously better than most in the Pro14 - but i think that said that majority or teams were utter dross last year I think my point is we have lost a lot of really good players, but not really replaced them with anyone you would get excited about. We have a few young players coming through like McDowall, the young SH etc but we dont seem to have the conveyor belt of talent we need 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddfg Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 Gibbons started like a house on fire but hasn’t really maintained the same level, a fit Kebble will start every week but apart from that I can’t mind who that last really good signing was. We keep getting told season ticket prices need to go up to pay for signing and seemingly get very little in return. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
come on shire Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 Is their any weight in the story of Dave Rennie leaving at the end of the season to become Oz head coach? I think it is. He only signed a 1 year deal and it's no secret that his wife wants to move closer to home. Apparently ex-Cardiff Blues head coach and currently one of the Scotland assistant coaches Danny Wilson's a front runner to replace Rennie. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a normal season the Pro14 would be finished and give him plenty of time before the Rugby Championship kicks of in August. This year though the final is Jun 20th which would give him about 6 weeks (once he got moved over) to work on the team. If Wilson is the front runner would they maybe let Rennie go after the 6N's with Wilson taking over to see out the season? The could obviously have him in now to help out / get to know the set up etc in preparation 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GordonS Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 Been following the warm up in bits and pieces over the past hour on Five Live and STV. I never cease to be surprised by the background level of English confidence. All puffery and no analysis, but apparently England are the dog's bollocks. Are other countries' media like this? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bully Wee Villa Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 To be honest, I'm surprised how low-key the whole thing is. Maybe it's because I don't live in a rugby city, with apologies to Moseley, but I've hardly heard anyone going on about this game. Doesn't seem very hyped up at all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
