Genuine Hibs Fan Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 (edited) 8 hours ago, honestly united said: Im hoping for a 40-50 man training squad, then all the youngsters getting a run in the A game, then a squad of 30 odd out for the 2 games in Romania and Georgia. Im hoping its a chance for some young guys to put there hands up rather than the same old squad players getting a game. Im hoping we get a chance to see you guys like Dobie, Thompson and McLean getting capped as well as Crosbie etc. Im hoping that they try and keep it under 30 yo as a start to building for the next world cup Yeah that's my feeling, hopefully a transitional group. Could add Ashman and Rodd for caps given the speculation, and Schoeman in the front row as well. Hopefully Redpath can get a couple of games with Hastings/Thompson. Could add Forbes to the list of backs, maybe Hutchison to play a game at 13. Ritchie and Cummings to captain a game each? All that to say if we play Georgia with Blade Thomson, Duncan Taylor and Byron McGuigan in the team I'll be raging Edited May 19, 2021 by Genuine Hibs Fan 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
come on shire Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 It's a pity that the away "A" game vs England isn't a full international. Either way, if the squad impress vs England, that could well be the team that play at full international level in Romania. The likes of Thompson and Rufus McLean should still do a job vs Romania tbh. However the Georgia away game could be tricky... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 Chris Fusaro retiring at the end of the season, another player who was a real Warrior for years. Nice touch by the squad at training today. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, been a decent game, though I still think Brace is quite a shite ref. I'm kind of torn on who I want to win as my uncle is a Tigers fan and is s good guy, but I don't want Austin Healey to be happy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Montpellier guy should definitely have been HIA'd. Watching this Glasgow just lacked the bulk to compete with Montpellier. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watching this Glasgow just lacked the bulk to compete with Montpellier. Yeah, I thought that maul defence was good as well. To be fair to Brace it was the touchjudge that gave it, the walking disaster that is Frank Murphy, who also just managed to somehow miss Nandolo taking out the guy about three yards away from the ball. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
