This game is ridiculous. Horne has missed every single kick, including the conversion right in front of the posts just there that would have put them eight points ahead with ten minutes to go. What an idiot.

The referee has continued to be disaster area too, calling forward passes and knock-ons where they clearly haven't happened and ignoring blatant fouls which should had had players in the bin.

20-14 Glasgow with 77 minutes on the clock, Glasgow lineout in their own 22, fucking tense here.

I know the pitch was pretty awful but Horne's inability to put over even the simplest of kicks could have cost Glasgow the match and handed Ulster a losing bonus point that they shouldn't have got. Matawalu is different class, wish he had a Scottish granny hiding somewhere.

What a performance from Glasgow tonight. 6 tries, a dominant pack, not many teams will do that to Munster and to see it from a Scottish team (even better when its my team) is great to see.

Hopefully a home semi final is on it's way, with a home final after that!!!

Glasgow were great last night.

Fair play to Townsend. Lineen had assembled a good basic team, but Townsend and his team have smoothed the rough edges out and kept it going. Many were dubious when he came and felt he was simply getting shuffled out of harms way but he's done well.

A back 3 of Hogg, Maitland and DTH is right up there with anything in the league at the moment. Hogg is a massive talent for the future. Niko is superb- sure he does stupid things, but when stuff comes off you can't handle him! Jackson was superb last night- best game for a long time, him and Weir are strong competition, not to mention Strauss and Barclay in the forwards. Glasgow are a really strong side.

It was a funny game. Munster had just about all of the ball in the first half but Glasgow get two breakaway tries and end up six points up. Glasgow much improved in the second half though, well deserved.

Even Edinburgh won last night, that's two on the bounce for them.

Glasgow have been brilliant this season, was dissapointed last week when they lost a close one to Leinster, but the 2nd half last night vs Munster was something else. If we can avoid Ulster and Leinster in the Semi, we should make the FInal, but will be tough vs either of those 2 in the Semi or Final as both of them have been there and won titles both domestic and european.

did anyone listen to this on 5 live a good debate on the scrum and how it should be developed, Brian Moore, Phil Vickery and some others take part, really interesting.

You'd never guess Gatland was the Wales boss eh? Although tbf, they are the best in the Northern Hemisphere.

Surprised Visser and Beattie aren't in there.

Had thought Grant was in with a shout and maybe Hines as well who has been excellent for Clermont this season.

Also Visser, Hamilton and Brown unlucky not to feature, as were Ross Rennie who was unlucky with injury.

Most suprising thing for me is only 2 Fly Halves, although wondering if a certain Mr Wilkinson will be called up as soon as his European / Top 14 commitments are out of the way as he will miss the first game in HK at least because of them.
