Detournement Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 (edited) Leinster on a different level. They are making subs where both guys are competing for Ireland shirts. Fitzgerald talks a lot of pish but he's right about the difference coming from a higher level of training (plus roids). Price, Dempsey, Steyn, Wilson and Gray all impressive for Glasgow.

Detournement Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 Edinburgh putting in a Solomons era first 20 in Parma. The backs look like a bunch of guys who have never played together (which is basically what they are). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
honestly united Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 Tough night last night for Glasgow, againt Leinster you have to be at your best, and sadly we werent. Price looked a bit rusty, and Weir is just not cutting it at 10. Big plus was the back row with Darge and Dempsey looking excellent, and Wilson looking a different player to last season. McLean looks a dangerous winger, always beats the first man, and looks dangerous, centres didnt get enough decent ball to make much impact. Thompson was ok at 15, but shouldnt be there, we need out best 10 playing 10 - I always like Weir but looks like he is going to be 3rd choice now. I think with Thompson at 10 and COle at 15 from teh start we could have got close last night. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Detournement Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 Edinburgh were better in the second half. Kinghorn is never a 10. Ritchie a cut above everyone else on the pitch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Detournement Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 That gives Glasgow decent depth on both sides. I quite like the look of Lambert. Saracens have a 21 year old backrow playing who played for Scotland u16 called Andy Christie but he switched to England at u18. They are currently drubbing Wasps. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im struggling to pull together a set of backs and subs for the Tonga game from that lot. My best guess for the team would be as follows (front row and the backrow could be swapped as decent depth) Hoyland, Graham, Tuipolotu, Johnson, Steyn, Thompson, Price, Fagerson, Ritchie, Watson, Gilchrist, Sykes, Bhatti, McInally, Fagerson Subs Schoeman, Turner, Kebble, Harley, Darge, Dobbie, Kinghorn, McLean We only have one 10 in Thompson so if he gets injured were bringing on Kinghorn, we only have 4 other backs that aren't starting, yet we dont replace Bennet when he gets injured? We are also really short on quality in the 2nd row 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Detournement Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 Tuipulotu was terrible on Friday against Leinster on Friday. Hopefully he doesn't get the start at 13 but there's no other option in the squad unless Steyn plays there. It's pretty shit for guys like Dean, Johnstone, Taylor and Hutchinson that he has just walked into the national team without showing much at all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont think he was that bad against Leinster, he just never had much of the ball to show what he can do, but agree we have plenty of options at Centre. The one Im suprised isnt in the squad, given he moved up to Edinburgh over the summer is Lang, as he gives more options as can also play 10, (edit to add, just noticed he is actually out injured also) 18 minutes ago, Detournement said: I think Kinghorn will start at 15 and Thompson 10.

He is so frusrating, as ball in hand he is actually really good, but without it he just wanders about aimlessly, and his pace is cut in half without the ball and chasing back to tackle, also the less said about his defence the better.

Even if Townsend doesn’t rate him, there’s no explanation for his complete lack of consideration. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
