All games in Scotland this weekend off
Not a decision I favour, but obvious , yes
the announcement was much earlier, and the TV, esp BBC wall to wall misery. If you'd managed to miss it that post would I guess appear cryptic. I do almost envy you avoiding it until so late!Mikey Brown wrote:I hadn't actually seen about dead queen when I read that post, but do you speak in such cryptic manner in real life?

I’m not sure that cancelling rugby games in Scotland is obvious even once I did know. It seems inevitable now that nobody is allowed to do anything at all for the next week or so though.

Interestingly enough, still no decision made about whether English rugby and football are off this weekend. Would be weird for Scotland to be too sad to play ball sports but not England, but it feels like the English sporting bodies are at least angling for that.septic 9 wrote:I believe the offered reason will be deemed so.Mikey Brown wrote:Sorry, is it obvious?

Last night's game was obvious I think. All other games this week much less so but utterly predictable from the blazers I think.Mikey Brown wrote:I’m not sure that cancelling rugby games in Scotland is obvious even once I did know.

24, NZ born, played for Ayrshire Bulls either 10 or 12, and was outstanding last season. On todays performance, he can go back to Bulls (and bench behind the 19 yo Simpson who will be a star. tbf Horne's pass was poor, too slow and looped.

Last I saw Glasgow did have a promising youngster at 10? Thomson?
Sorry, I'm about as far out of the loop as I can get.

one game in, only a few weeks with the team and a squad he didn't pick, pre season games cancelled. Yes excellent basis to make a call like thatoldprussians wrote:Told you Glasgow made a mistake with Smith
Hard to say until the team settles a bit, obviously, but it’s an odd looking team sheet. Curious to see where he lands on his first choice side once most are available.Still septic wrote:one game in, only a few weeks with the team and a squad he didn't pick, pre season games cancelled.

Glasgow have serious and deep rooted problems. Mainly stemming from Rennie doing f all to build, That was where the mistake was made. Teams do not become great overnight, not do they fade instantly. We are seeing Rennie's heritage, it already cost one coach his job
he won't be 1st choice 8 if he plays like last night. Very poor. Starting at 7, finishing at 6Mikey Brown wrote:
Thoughts on Fagerson being Scotlands first choice 8 but not playing there week in week out?
it will take time. And harsh to judge on one game but I'm not convinced some of the new signings are nearly good enoughMikey Brown wrote:

6 and 8 can be largely interchangeable, to an extent 6 and 7. Fagerson for Scotland has put clear water between himself and others for Scotland no8, this summer clearly. Yet Dempsey started most for Glasgow at 8. It will come down to fitness and form - and who Tonnie trusts
Darge is a one off, a talent rarely seen. Hope he recovers as expected this year
