Exeter is easy to deal with, they got covid positive test, they can forfeit, which despite much unfairness is simple. Glasgow is far harder- punishing a side simply due to scheduling because they played a side who got covid and have now been advised to isolate by public health is more challenging. I suspect Lyon get the win, but that seems very unfair, even if 28-0 is probably a better result than Glasgow would achieve right now! Glasgow should be pushing for a draw - its probably the only points we will get this year! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingscot Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Indeed. Wasn't the last match via Lyon a draw and we won away? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glasgow has to be declared a draw but they might wait as long as possible so it does not affect the outcome of the groups 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be surprised if they make the reigning champions forfeit, as that would almost certainly stop them from reaching the quarter finals. I know that was supposed to be the agreed protocol before the tourney started, but I doubt they thought it would happen to one of the top teams. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
