    Two fast and furious teams, dry conditions, arguably the most Super Rugby style teams in the Pro14.

    Certainly exciting to watch :D

    Scarlets up suspiciously fast in defence at times, while Glasgow looking a bit soft / loose defensively. Need to sort out the discipline too.

    Should be an entertaining game though.

    🤪



  • Registered Users Posts: 3,822 ✭✭✭Jump_In_Jack


    Scarlets off to a flying start, two converted tries to a penalty.
    Glasgow 3-14 Scarlets, at 19 minutes


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,822 ✭✭✭Jump_In_Jack


    Commentary saying Glasgow look the part of a team that hasn’t played in a few weeks.

    Certainly have given away soft yards early in the match.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,822 ✭✭✭Jump_In_Jack


    Finn Russell playing very expansive stuff, floating passes long and chipping it into space, he is great to watch when in this form.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,599 ✭✭✭ScrubsfanChris


    Glasgow have only played two competitive fixtures in the last 33 days and lost both. Might explain their poor start here.

    Terrible decision. Never maintained weight, awful stuff.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,822 ✭✭✭Jump_In_Jack


    Van der Merwe getting a few flashes of possession, the ex-Scarlets player looks dangerous every time.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,599 ✭✭✭ScrubsfanChris


    In fact just noticed that Glasgows Pro14 2018 so far is 5 wins - 5 losses - 1 draw. Not exactly great.

    Agreed. Terrible call.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,300 ✭✭✭✭razorblunt


    Horne keeping them in it.
    Russell no where to be seen at the moment.

    George Horne with another steal. Impressive showing so far after 27 mins.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,822 ✭✭✭Jump_In_Jack


    Lots of stoppages so far, must be very tough to go that explosive and then stop and then go again, very strange type of fitness required.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,300 ✭✭✭✭razorblunt


    Why was Lacey saying "use it" the Glasgow scrum was minced there?


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,822 ✭✭✭Jump_In_Jack


    Knockout rugby


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,849 ✭✭✭ionadnapokot


    The size of the replacement TH for Glasgow!!
    He looks knackered already


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,221 ✭✭✭A-Train


    Another Scarlett’s try, good hands


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,822 ✭✭✭Jump_In_Jack


    “Step” Evans


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,076 ✭✭✭✭vienne86


    And another one for Scarlets - could have been a forward pass there, I thought.....but obviously not.

    Glasgow not on form at all.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,822 ✭✭✭Jump_In_Jack


    Rob that was.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,149 ✭✭✭mangobob


    This could be very ugly.

    Scarlets are very very good tonight. Glasgow are making a few mistakes but there's enormous pressure every time Glasgow touch the ball

    Yes but he said the Scarlets front row popped up as well.

    Replay looked forwards alright.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,076 ✭✭✭✭vienne86


    Pity Glasgow didn't score there - would have helped make a match of it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,822 ✭✭✭Jump_In_Jack


    Glasgow 3-21 Scarlets at 36 minutes.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,300 ✭✭✭✭razorblunt


    Hate Scottish crowds so much.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,599 ✭✭✭ScrubsfanChris


    Another big occasion = another Finn Russell "no show"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,300 ✭✭✭✭razorblunt


    Yes but he said the Scarlets front row popped up as well.

    Yeah that's fair enough I guess.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,822 ✭✭✭Jump_In_Jack


    Feck it Finn! Great attacking position and knocks it on.

    Why’s that? R they Always booing?

    More booing than an Ulster match here

    Always, always booing.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,822 ✭✭✭Jump_In_Jack


    Yet another steal on the ground by Horne I think!

    They're saying Boo urns


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,599 ✭✭✭ScrubsfanChris


    What a steal by Shingler was it?

    People in glasshouses shouldn't throw stones. Plenty of booing at every ground, including the 4 provinces.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,822 ✭✭✭Jump_In_Jack


    Glasgow got over the line but held up on half-time.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,822 ✭✭✭Jump_In_Jack

    Shingler caught the attempted offload.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,300 ✭✭✭✭razorblunt


    I really can't understand how Nick Grigg is playing this level of professional rugby, never mind playing for Scotland.

    Glasgow ahead in every statistic except penalties conceded, yet still 18 points down!

    The stream I'm watching, there is a fabulous dual spectrum of light running down either side of the screen. Looks like a lovely night to watch live rugby.

    Dead right Zippy. e.g. Leinster v Scarlets in European semi. Plenty of booing by Leinster fans.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,721 ✭✭✭✭Squidgy Black


    Horne off for a HIA, the only player who actually showed up for Glasgow today.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,356 ✭✭✭✭Larbre34


    Glasgow not playing for 3 weeks really shows up what sting in the tail the conference system is, unless you happen to be in the Champions Cup final


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,149 ✭✭✭mangobob


    Game over.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,300 ✭✭✭✭razorblunt


    Racing must be scratching their heads looking at what they're getting in Russell here.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,822 ✭✭✭Jump_In_Jack


    Match effectively over now with 30 mins to go.
    Scarlets with an easy finish from the lineout, and Glasgow down to 14 for 10 minuets.
    Pity that it hasn’t lived up to expectations.
    Horne back on.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,599 ✭✭✭ScrubsfanChris


    That was very close. Scarlets get lucky


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,967 ✭✭✭Synode


    Should have been a lineout. Terrible decision
