peasy23 Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 That looked like the Leicester player knocked it forward into his teammate's hands, but got away with it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Connolly Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 The only thing that could make Leicester winning the title worse is Freddie fucking Burns being the hero. Horrible club, shitehawk player 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim McLean's Ghost Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 Saracens timid at the end,. I thought they would be the stronger team if it went to extra time, especially with the extra man but questions asked about not going for the kill. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northsea80 Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 Talking of Glasgow.... Anyone else a season ticket holder? I'm swaying on renewing as £427 is eyewateringly expensive for 9 league games and 2 challenge cup games especially when games are shunted around at will for TV. This means I end up potentially missing a few with football or work which makes it even worse value. Genuinely thinking of a Premier Sports sub and picking games.I gave mine up at the start of last season. The cut from 11 league games and 3 euro games (when it was pro12) down to 9 league and 2 euro with continual price hikes wasn’t justifiable. Especially with Glasgow going backward at a rate of knots! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAD Posted June 19, 2022 Share Posted June 19, 2022 The Glasgow prices are really off-putting these days to casual fans. I remember going to Glasgow v Leicester a few years ago in the champions cup with a bunch of mates who I usually go to the football with. Watching Finn, Hogg, Sarto, Bennet, Strauss, etc take 40 points off them with some champagne rugby, for less than £20 meant these guys were up for going whenever they good, and we were taking in about 7 odd games a season. But the prices went up and up, the quality went down, and none of us went to a single game last season. Friday night, exciting attacking rugby, for a reasonable price was what got folk along to Scotstoun in the first place, but they are losing all that. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Detournement Posted June 19, 2022 Share Posted June 19, 2022 The Baa Baas smashed England 52-21 despite playing the majority of the game with 14 men. You love to see it. The Barbarians team was mostly French guys with Ollivon, Cretin, Penaud and Vakatawa being the big names. They have serious depth. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what struck me seeing the current pricings. I last lived in Glasgow as a student 2011-15 and would go along at least 3 or 4 times a year with a few pals, for I think about the same price that you mention there. And aye, this was watching a team which you felt would inevitably end up winning something big at some stage, had a cast of trully top players and played fantastic rugby. The Friday night element of it was a big pull factor as well. Couldn't believe how much they're charging for a far inferior product now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest, I doubt many of those guys I went with then could really name many of the squad now, such has been the drain of talent and the influx of shite. Huw Jones would have least have been a name, but rumours are he's not coming now! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genuine Hibs Fan Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Quite excited to watch this tour, albeit never getting a tour and regular games against the big boys down south is one of the things that's held us back from kicking on in the last 7/8 years imo. Obviously a lot of guys rested/unavailable, and the usual handful of strange exclusions, particularly in the backs, where I hope we get to see Currie, Bennett and Hutchinson offering a more attacking edge. Equally in the backrow there a lot of very promising guys who will hopefully get minutes. Bit strange that Fagerson is playing the A game but I guess his and a few other inclusions are a sign of the caution which has been the hallmark of most of Townsend's thinking post-2019 6 Nations; not wanting to run the slightest risk of an upset even for the A team. On the back row, been thinking recently about how our relatively recent explosion of good options there makes the captaincy discussion more difficult. No guarantee Hogg is stepping down but I think for most Ritchie is the natural choice. Is he or should he be guaranteed a place now, though? He'd probably be my starting 6 in the majority of games but I don't think he'd ever really start at 7 with Watson and Darge available for me, and going forward if we start to adapt our back row to the opposition there are times when you'd maybe prefer Skinner as an extra lock, Dempsey/Bradbury/Fagerson(maybe even Muncaster in the near future?), or Darge to get our best jackal on the pitch. Christie and Crosbie could force their way in at some point in the future too. On the flip side, I can't think of anyone who should, imo, be guaranteed a start who would be a good choice. Zander def not, J. Gray or Cummings maybe at a push, Watson no. In the backs there's a lot more but none I'd really want as a captain, except again maybe Price. Hard circle to square at the moment 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
