There was a brilliant shot of Patterson losing his shit with the VT operator beside him in the TMO box though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveThePirate Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 I didn’t think there would be a worse result across the weekend than Edinburgh’s but fair play to the Scarlets, helping Sale bag a record points total in Europe is some going. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saw a guy on Twitter saying a bunch of massive South Africans walking over the top of some feeble Welshmen didn't exactly bode well for the summer. Not going down well with Welsh rugby Twitter at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Bob Mahelp Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 It's a worrying sign for Scottish rugby that both Edinburgh and Glasgow are so poor. I don't see a lot of their Pro14 games because of Premier Sports, but they see to have regressed big time. As said above, they have a few world class players, but by God there is some utter dross in their teams. Look at Edinburgh today....on paper, their pack looks competitive. But then the game starts and they look pathetic. I suppose the warning signs were there when Bradbury lines up at lock. Then look at the backs. Full of players that are nowhere near good enough for top level rugby.....Pyrgos, Hoyland, Taylor, Johnstone, Kinghorn at stand off (why). The first responsibility of Scotland's two professional clubs is to develop and supply Scottish players to the international side. It seems at this moment in time, we seem to be standing still. Yes, we have a bit of a golden generation in Hogg, Watson, et al. But I see nobody in either the Edinburgh or Glasgow teams that is likely to be knocking on the door in a year or so....maybe I'm just being harsh here. Is there anyone ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dobie, Thompson and McLean at Glasgow will undoubtedly be Scotland internationals in the near future and I think all three of them are under 21 at the moment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Connolly Posted April 8, 2021 Share Posted April 8, 2021 Edinburgh have signed Bristol Bears Academy winger Freddie Owsley, who is Scottish qualified through his grandfather, who used to play for Queen's Park. His sister Lily Owsley was a member of GB's Gold medal winning Olympic Hockey team in Rio, and scored in the final. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
