Strong team on paper. To be honest, if that pack can't get on top of the Stormers, you have your answer as to why Scotland don't win very many big games.
you should be happy, top performance by that pack against a truly huge and very physical Stormers pack. Zander Fagerson is absolute class

Yes, meant to come back on here to say something similar. Restores a bit of faith. Huge game next week. Wasn't a perfect performance but really stuck at it and deserved their win. Less comfortable than the scoreline makes it look, but equally might have been a bit more comfortable if Horne had held on for a first half walk in.

Agree on Fagerson. Gets a harsh time. I think partly became some people don't like how he looks when he concedes a penalty.

Same team as last week apart from Murphy Walker in for McBeth (concussion) on the bench. Huge game.

Absolutely awesome result, winning a semi final away at Munster is one of those 'Everest' moments. Hope they can pick themselves up again for next week.

Congrats weegies

Better team won, Munster sloppy in possession

Tuipolotou and Jones are a great combo. Generally your backs were far better

Hopefully recover well and travel well, good luck in the final

Exactly! That was awesome. If Munster away is Everest, Bulls in Pretoria can't be far away!

Greatest achievement by a Scottish side in the pro era. Massive back to back wins to close it out.

What I will say is this.

Glasgow have bought a pup with Franco Smith, and also paid for the privilege .............................


What were the owners of Glasgow thinking???

if I am wrong and you become awesome I will really eat my hat, and a ton load of humble pie.

But I am really baffled in a nice way. Not trying to troll. I am just baffled.

Are you happy?
very happy.

That post has aged like a fine wine; which went off :lol: :lol: :lol:

Unreal. Those last two wins, away from home, digging it out.... just unreal. There can't be a more difficult route to winning the URC than that, surely?

Please God 1, let FS stay and 2, let this be the launch pad for Scottish players

Wow!

Wrong in a way to single our individuals, buy Matt Fagerson has been brutally good in these last two games.

I’m trying to hold on until I can watch the whole game back. Just fucking wow. Call me a fair weather fan but I just didn’t believe it was truly on.

Great to hear so much of Matt Fagerson bringing it to the big Saffa pack.

There's a meet the team kinda thing on Tuesday at Scotstoun if anyone is interested. It's ticketed but if you can't get into the stadium you should still be able to see them outside the stadium first

One other thing - the maul defence was incredible all game. Seemed to be able to drive the bulls back ferociously enough that they couldn't get set again.
