Rugby refereeing is consistently inconsistent. Red for England but not in the Chile or Scotland game for almost identical incidents
Wales constantly giving away penalties on their line and then the first infringement up the other end a Fijian walks.
It’s turning people off.

How I wish we had a Peter O’Mahony type player.
Say what you like about him but he’s exactly the type of player we lack. Aggression, dark arts, leadership. A horrible bastard. And that’s a compliment, not a criticism.

41 tackles, 41 made, hee haw missed. Ladies and Gentleman, Jonny is back to his absolute best.
If ESPN stats are accurate, Jonny Gray has made 41 tackles and missed none. That is an absolutely ridiculous return. Been outstanding in all aspects of play but particularly on fringe defence. Seven other Glasgow forwards making over 20 tackles. Whopper of a victory.

As I’ve said many a time this season, a moment to just reflect on the impact that Franco Smith has had on Glasgow.

Warriors under Danny Wilson were a shambolic mess. Disorganised and unable to compete.
Under Franco Smith it’s a different beast entirely. In a short space of time, he’s turned them into a competitive, creative team of fighters and superstars.

It’s now 3 weeks since I first started to feel the effects of what turned out to be a positive test for Covid-19. Worst I’ve ever felt in my life but I consider myself very fortunate and blessed that I’ve been able to make a full recovery. Many others haven’t been so lucky.
