Can someone (looking lovingly at you RDW) send me the link?

I feel so redundant!

Glasgow's performance so far making me feel less disparaging about Edinburgh's efforts last week.

Slightly less...

Grazie bene! ))

For those planning on using Hola, apparently that works if you set your language to Italian.

14-7 HT - must do better from Glasgow

*sings*

Big T goes full beast mode!

Great angle from Dunbar - 21-14

Looks like normal service has resumed

Slow mo's always make late tackles look so much worse, but that was ridiculous from McArthur!

Big T has hands like jubblies

36DD jubblies, mind you.

Valiant attempt from the Zebre 9 to stop him there...

Lovely offloads from Glasgow

6 tries to 0 in the 2nd 40.
If Carslberg did half time teams talks...

I haven't been able to watch tonight but I've been following the live scores. Apparently my Uncle Dougie after 6 Remy Martins and a back pill could have kicked more accurately than Russell tonight.

Well much like last week Zebre were well up for it for the first half then completely fell away - Glasgow have much more firepower than Edinburgh do and made it count. There were some really nice tries in there from Glasgow.

GC - Russell's kicking was bloody awful!

Well just back from the game. Had to abandon 21CSM and partner as we are heading off to Siena on a early train.

A great night watching the game. It's a lovely little ground with a very sporting crowd. A decent among of Warriors fans there as well.

We were sitting right behind the Glasgow players so got the half time verdict from Tim Swinson who seems to have forgiven 21st for questioning his decesions making at the Northampton game on a previous encounter!

One of the highlights though was being introduced to Simone Favaro's mum before the game, who seemed delighted to met all the Glasgow fans. My wife, who is also Italian, had a little chat with her and she said how much she is looking forward to coming over to Glasgow soon for the first time.

Who wouldn't be!

On the rugby front, Zebra played a really good first half and then predictably folded completely in the second. Surely they have got the potential to improve on that. I really do think we need to give them some more time.

It was great to meet 21CSM as well. It is good to put a face to a name sometime.

Tell you what, the quality of Guinness representatives is much higher in Italy!

Lots of things in Italy are more pleasing to the eye!

Hornee Furra Linee isn't letting go of her is he?

A win next week against Scarlets and I think that's play-offs as good as guaranteed, they'll beat Zebre at home and almost certainly with a bonus point. With any luck we can at least leapfrog Connacht on the last day of the season. First or second makes literally no difference to Glasgow other than two consecutive first place finishes would be outstanding for the club considering where they were earlier in the season.

Sounds like Russell's place kicking is fairly shocking at present, this could be a problem in the inevitably tighter games to come.
