Would be quite a good incentive for Niko and Leone to stay if we could bring rugby to them again and for them to spread the Warrior word in Fiji.

Wow, still taking the result in. Weegies, proud of yous

I screamed at Mitrea thru the TV as Munster pushed the rules to the limit - but that is why they are such a great side, with European trophies under their belt. In comparison, Glasgow are years behind them as a club, but last night was theirs

Kia, love you dearly, but you are wrong about the Weege - they are a great bunch, would have bayed for blood during the match, but would have hugged every Munsterman they could find afterwards and before. Mitrea allowed the nous of Munster to make it a difficult match in which to be neutral, and the passion that flowed was inevitable. I'll take you as my guest to the final and you'll see

The Warriors looked nervous for long periods, and gave Munster too much early on. But they held on, stuck at it and came right back. Two teams contributed to a spectacle which kept me on the edge of my seat for two hours - thank you both

Post by George Carlin Sat 17 May 2014, 6:56 pm

Watched the whole game again just to pick up some of the detail. Couple of things stood out from a Glasgow perspective.

1. Mitrea did fine. Only at a couple of scrums were decisions simply not correct (and that's within the permitted margin of error for all refs). We conceded so many penalties because we made so many mistakes. That's it.

2. There's a reason we choose Dougie Hall instead of Pat MacArthur. It's not just for the extra bulk. Dougie just makes far fewer mistakes than his younger colleague. Throwing in squint into a 13 man lineout is quite a feat.

3. Gordon Reid has kicked on this season more than almost any other player. He is a genuine force on the loosehead side and is starting to match power to his size.

4. Leone Nakarawa is absolutely indispensable. If we aren't going to start him, then he should be the first sub listed. He was enormous in defence as well as making the offloads that open the game up. An amazing athlete.

5. The loose forward trio of Bluto/Fozzy/Boabster really has to be one of the finest combinations Glasgow has ever had.

6. Harley is probably our most important forward. Oh yes. I went there.

7. Apart from missing one kick, Finn did nothing wrong and hits above his weight in defence. He is apparently called 'The Muscle' Russell by the team because he delivers a much bigger punch than it looks like he should.

Surely jonny Gray is the best forward? He's not missed a tackle in 150 odd no???

Not to say ginger Boab isn't great. I'd have him starting at 6 for Scotland.

Also apparently, the cost of a flight from Glasgow to Dublin for the final has gone from £118 to £365 this evening.

Absolute scumbags.

They did the same for Edinburgh's HK semi so we flew to Belfast and took the train down - would recommend that to anyone.

Yeah, ironically, it's (currently at least) half the price to fly Edinburgh to Dublin. Sorely tempted.

It's very easy and cheap to get from Belfast to Dublin you know. It'll add maybe 2 and a half hours onto your journey but it'll save you money.

Bus from the airport to the city centre every half hour. Bus from city centre to Dublin city centre every hour. Both 24 hours a day, fares relatively low.

Note it'll save you money in that you'll avoid the Glasgow-Dublin price gouging. You might be able to just get a flight from Edinburgh to Dublin as cheaply.

Sadly, they've cottoned on to those trying to sneak over via Edinburgh. Prices have gone up £100 from earlier!

The Belfast route was easy and ended up saving a lot of money. Train to Dublin takes only a couple of hours and wasn't too expensive.

!!

This was in the Scotsman article - has the squad been announced?

"Russell will be asked to bring some of that positive energy to Scotland’s summer squad, announced on Tuesday, where he will be joined by his colleague Kevin Bryce, the bolter in the squad, despite the hooker only playing 46 minutes for Glasgow all season."

Just looked at London-Dublin flights but the cheapest is about £110. Don't think I'll be making it as Schiz and Baby Schiz drank all my bawbees. I'll miss the florins with Queen Victoria on them.

Well just got back from from a weekend indulging my other passion, cycling. London to Hull on Thursday, them an overnight, York back to Hull on Friday night. 300 miles over three days, so having a quiet recovery day today!

Had to follow on twitter while away, but watched the game last night when I got home. I know it has already all been said, but feel I have got to add my two pence worth. What a great win for the mighty warriors and again what a team performance. No-one left a thing out there, dare we say it, it was Munstereque!

Can't wait for the final and I am glad they have got a week off to recover, there were some sore bodies at the end of it. It never gets any easier, but to win a trophy why should it. It does not mean we cannot win though. I don't think some sides of the press will be taking us so lightly next time round!

Would love to believe that's true Gee, but some of the most cycloptic, crapulent desk monkeys in all of meeja write rugby columns.

Shall I start a finals thread? Feels much too early.

Just to say I re-watched the match and I do have to take back my comments on the referee being a bit iffy. Most of his calls were spot on and he did let the game flow well. Also noteworthy that he wasn't bought by the persistent running ref commentary from Munster.

I'd say he was OK, not as good as Nigel Owens, but handled the game fine.

----------------

Re finals thread, the team apparently have until Wednesday off and given it's in 2 weeks time I doubt there will be much to discuss in the coming days. Less importantly, but also important, the Scotland summer squad/s is announced on Tuesday which will maybe have some discussion points.

Lots of comments in the heat of the night about the ref, but actually he was not that bad. Both TMO tries were contentious and not clear, I don't think he asked the right question the first time around, so I guess to get one and lose one was about right. He certainly missed a few squint throws but on the whole let the match flow and as Nemotode says, did not give in to the Munster chat, as so many refs have in the past!

Kellock should not have started on merit and Swinson definitely upped the physicality when he came on, but the big man did what he was on the pitch to do and did not let the Irish get away with murder chatting to the ref. That may have made the difference between winning and losing in such a close game!

Interestingly the heir apparent seems to be young Johnny Gray who took the armband when Big Al went off. 19 years old, what a mature head on such a young body. Some captains lead by words, some by deeds, he seems to be of the latter persuasion!

BigGee, I have to disagree slightly. I thought the ref was ok in certain area's and I have no quibbles about the try being awarded.

My issue was he seemed unable to control the breakdown and allowed Munster to lie all over our side. At one point I thought Leo Cullen had signed for them.

Had to follow on twitter while away, but watched the game last night when I got home. I know it has already all been said, but feel I have got to add my two pence worth. What a great win for the mighty warriors and again what a team performance. No-one left a thing out there, dare we say it, it was Munstereque!

Can't wait for the final and I am glad they have got a week off to recover, there were some sore bodies at the end of it. It never gets any easier, but to win a trophy why should it. It does not mean we cannot win though. I don't think some sides of the press will be taking us so lightly next time round!

Would love to believe that's true Gee, but some of the most cycloptic, crapulent desk monkeys in all of meeja write rugby columns.

Shall I start a finals thread? Feels much too early.

Did anyone notice the headline on RugbyDump?
"Glasgow Warriors upset Munster then Leinster edge Ulster in tense PRO12 Semis"

So apparently our result was an upset

I assumed that was a verb rather than a noun, but that might just be my naive, happy-go-lucky nature.
