What Dunbar did is far more serious than pretending your head hurt more than it actually did. I'm not condoning what Sexton did but the two things are not comparable.Mikey Brown wrote:As long as Sexton does too then fair enough.Big D wrote:Dunbar may have a trip to the disciplinary committee.

Malcolm gets two years and Grigg one. The later is a surprise as he hasn't seemed that close to the first team and is 23 now but maybe a few years sevens is what he needed. He looks pretty elusive in that formathugh_woatmeigh wrote:Cummings has signed a 3 year contract with the Weeg. Well deserved.

That can't be correct?
Djustice, outstanding name. Hopefully he'll be dishing out Djustice in the scrums.........hp18 wrote:RC LH prop Djustice Sears-Duru joins on a short term deal. I'm guessing there's an injury but still good to have a Canadian back in the ranks.
I'm really interested in seeing Grigg play more. To have made it through to the professional ranks in this day and age when you're as small as him... well you have to be good.switchskier wrote:Malcolm gets two years and Grigg one.

He has a lot of blydi caps for a 21 year old prop. Do Glasgow really need a short term signing at LH? I know Grant is a long term lay-off, is Allan out for longer than expected then?hp18 wrote:RC LH prop Djustice Sears-Duru joins on a short term deal.

This is short term injury cover and/or a chance to see if he's another diamond in the rough. Personally think it's a bit of both. Jerry is an unknown for next season after allhugh_woatmeigh wrote:He has a lot of blydi caps for a 21 year old prop. Do Glasgow really need a short term signing at LH?

"Ulster have produced some high quality performances this season and are a top quality team.
"I’ve always admired their attack shape and they tend to bring out some very good set-piece plays. They are also a very strong defensive side.
"We've had some tight games with them over the years and we're expecting another tough battle tomorrow.
“We were proud of how our players performed and excelled for Scotland during the RBS 6 Nations and it’s a real boost to have them back with us for the run-in.
