Webb is a plonker!!

There was so little contact with Webb and the Glasgow attacker, like Goughs 'late tackle' in the first.

Plenty of acting from Glasgow but Ospreys are so dull to give them the opportunity!

Really stupid from Webb and not arguing with the yellow, but what's with the play acting from the Glasgow player again?

Glasgow deservedly 18-0 ahead as it stands.

At least wee Duncy has his radar working from the tee - phew

Captain Alybong on! Gwaaaan Al, sort them out!

ASBO

If the player lies on top of you, and you feel his weight YOU DO NOT RELEASE THAT BALL!!!

If I or any of my team released in that position I would've knocked his block off!

Big call going for the corner and not the points...especially when your lineout's crap and you're a man down...

Every lazy run is deliberate (well it is when i do it)

blues, think you need to check the rules, you're obliged to release, you don't have a choice as to whether someone is lying on you are not - unless you can show me that amendment to the laws? And if he is lying on you not supporting his own weight, he'll get pinged

Surely a yellow for the Glaswegian?

The laws don't apply to the breakdown, ask anyone who plays the game.

The laws state uou must release on the deck, but with people offside you have to wrestle the ball back, about 9 times out of 10 presentations in fact.

Aye, he's off...meanwhile, O's should be able to get a good score here.

should be a yellow for Glasgow here, deliberatly pulled that down, should habe been a cert try for the O's there.

And yep, 6 is off.

Should that not be a penalty try then?

Ah man, Glasgow just killing the ball here, this is ridiculous.

IANTO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ah da iawn Ianto!

Pressure finally pays off for the O's. THis game needed them to score next

Difference is O's are having to work very hard to get points on the board whereas Glasgows points have been very easy to come by...

All black esque.

Good score from the Os, AW Jones has upped the intensity from the pack

Dreamer - Glasgow should've been penalised again after that binning, so maybe it should've been a penalty try? I don't know the rules that indepth to judge though. COME ON O's!

7-18.

Glasgow claiming he didn't ground the ball, but he did.

Now who's getting a little excited!!!

GARBAGE!!!

Absolute tripe, what is stowers doing there? why is Biggar? playing such a strong pass?

Schoolboy stuff

Good effort from Dougie Hall to put the pressure on

hee I just want to see a good game of rugby, the meds are starting to wear off

Tis starting to get really frustrating seeing any good ball being killed off though, just not my cup of tea to watch!

oh shoite! VDM in for his second!

Superb try, lovely wriggle, DTH

Amazeballs

Booger. Not even a LBP chance now...

7-23.

15 phases, 2 penalties, strong carrying = 7 points.

Dan Biggar = 7 points against 30 seconds later.

Handed Glasgow everything they need, and hopefully we're looking at a 5 - 0 win now for Glasgow!

Good try for Glasgow, well finished

Also I'm not used to you using so many !!!'s As, I would say the excitement is catching....

I can tell!

Perfect riposte from the Weegies

theres only one DTHVDM!

Schlong on!!!! Every cloud...

Jiffy getting excited...NUMBEHS!

Was it just me or did the O's tryscorer land on his arm and given benefit of doubt?

Jonathon Davies, please put a sock it your mouth.
He simply can't do impartiality and rarely says anything about the opposition, good or bad.

DTH vdM in for his second as i write this! Weir converts.

Osprey's are meant to be the champs? Hard to believe from watching this game.

Slightly worrying that Ryan Grant didn't reappear at half-time having gone down clutching his neck in the first half - we're down to Gordon Reid and ...?

How mean




Oooooh O's mun, quick ball! just get it out, what's wrong with them?

They were the champions last season. These are not the same members of the team...

Superb counter-rucking from the Coo, Hibbard should've shipped that

I swear those playing the Jiffy drinking game are going to be well tiddly after this game.

2 overlaps blown here for the O's, sooo annoying.

Asbo - been wondering about that guy not appearing after HT too. Hope Glasgow haven't picked up more serious injuries, they've had horrid luck already this season.

TAKE A QUICK PENALTY YOU PLONKER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Why go for the three points?! FFS!!!

All this Jiffy bashing is getting a bit tedious...

He's constantly praising Glasgow, this one eyed approach to 'I don't like his voice' is poor.

The crowd is going nuts for fatuali to tap and give it to the 3 man overlap...

10 - 25 for what it's worth.

Think it was coz the ref hadn't called the mark that they couldn't take a quick pen. Annoying regardless.

how long left? at work and following you bunch of nutters to get an idea of the game and score!!

Cheers cari...

You can't take a quick tap after a quick tap.

Still too early to call, the Os have more to give still, I reckon

It's 10-25 after 64 minutes.

Great tackle on Biggar from Coo else he was away

Ashley beck has not made one correct decision tonight!
