I think Glasgow will win this in an entertaining, end to end game

Re: Super Saturday: Connacht v Glasgow Warriors
I wonder how the Treviso game will impact on the Connacht team's confidence. They shouldn't be losing a game like that at this stage.
Anyone know if there is a way Glasgow can play Connacht or Leinster in the semi final? Ulster are looking not too shabby at the moment, worryingly.

Re: Super Saturday: Connacht v Glasgow Warriors
Ulster will have revenge on their minds after last season, and are starting to build a head of steam - I think Glasgow would probably rather Leinster or Connacht at home certainly!

Re: Super Saturday: Connacht v Glasgow Warriors
Ulster have got to get there still and it is by no means certain. Ospreys will be playing for a Euro place and will be every up for that game. Ulster have not travelled well this year.
My preferred option would be for Scarlets to qualify 4th and for us to play them.
No easy games at that stage though, I doubt if Toonie and the team are giving it any thought and will just play whoever is in front of them. We should be beating any of them at home.

Re: Super Saturday: Connacht v Glasgow Warriors
Ulster tore Leinster a new one in the last match - their backline seemed to cut the Ladyboys open at will.
Leinster looked like they wouldn't have scored if they played for a week.
No brainer - Ulster are to be avoided. Would be delighted with a Leinster semi at home.

Re: Super Saturday: Connacht v Glasgow Warriors
No disrespect to Ulster's result, but Leinster (at the moment) are pretty gash. Glasgow's result against Zebre can also be discarded considering how poor they are although it was a more impressive result considering Glasgow were mostly a 2nd string.
My thoughts for Saturday is that Glasgow will win pretty comfortably. A bonus point win would get the other 3 teams praying for avoidance in the semi.
I honestly think this is Glasgow's title to lose as they are playing on another level to anyone else at the moment.

Re: Super Saturday: Connacht v Glasgow Warriors
I would like Scarlets to sneak in. Reckon they are faltering badly and would be happy to be in the playoffs. Ulster have something to fear as they have one of the best backlines in Europe but their pack lets them down. They can score tries from anywhere. Leinster in the final would suit me.
Expecting the first team vs Connacht:
Reid, Brown, Fagerson, Gray, Naka, Harley, Favaro/Fusaro, Strauss, Pyrgos, Russell, Seymour, Dunbar, Bennett, Big T, Hogg

Totally agree Ms Sapling; Scaaahlettes at Scotstoun would be the best we could hope for.
I would pick:
1. Shrek
2. Brown Trousers
3. Puafisi (he has been one of Toonie's go to players this season)
4. Jonny
5. Flagball
6.Harley (although we might see batman as I expect a very fast, open match)
7. The Legend That Is
8. Bluto (but again Arthur Ashe could be a "horses for courses" pick)
9. Henners
10. Dancer
11.Seymour
12. Hornee Furra
13. Dunbar
14. Selkirk Pixie ( when you see Zebre targeting Nayaravarou's wing, and scoring twice, then you know he is right up there with Turnstile Tim)
15. Hogg
16. Jerry
17. WeePee
18 Ragnar The Mental
19. Batman
20 Ashe
21. Hart
22.
23 Schlong

Re: Super Saturday: Connacht v Glasgow Warriors
I think Connacht may saw last weeks game as slightly irrelevant, it was going to come down the is game to decide on a home semi or not. They made ten changes, I think that the way there saw it was make the changes for Treviso and rest a team to put in a final big push for two hopefully 3 big games.
Aki and Healy are back fit and maybe Buckley
Glasgow are going well, but I don't think they are going so well as to expect to go to the Sportsground and come away with 5 points.
Connacht have only lost once at home in the league, 3 - 10 against Ulster.

Gregor Townsend certainly won't. He rested almost all of his key players last week just for this game.
There is perhaps less pressure on Glasgow now though as they probably only need to draw to get a home semi.
I think that Glasgow will take a point either through scoring tries, getting a draw or finishing close. Although if Finn Russell is goalkicking as poorly as he has done recently, it might be a long night for us.

Re: Super Saturday: Connacht v Glasgow Warriors
This game will be very tough indeed, in Aki and Henshaw Connacht have two of the best players in the division and their pack is teak tough. Lam has got them playing very organised, attacking rugby - everybody seems to know what they are doing within his structure. Given the home advantage and how fired up Connacht will be, Glasgow will have to be very good in the opening exchanges.
If pushed, I slightly favour Glasgow. in Hogg, Russell, Naka and Seymour I think they have enough firepower to make things happen, coupled with the experience they have picked up of previous Pro 12 knockout games. Glasgow by less than a 7.

It's difficult to put into words quite how excited I am for this game.
It's like the regular season has reached a pinnacle, a zenith of peak awesomeness.

Re: Super Saturday: Connacht v Glasgow Warriors
Careful there Bru, you may be peaking too soon, again.
If Craggy Island seconds win tomorrow it will be because (a) Glasgow don't turn up or (b) the beat us by playing better rugby in a titanic struggle.
I have no doubt that Glasgow will turn up and play to their potential. In which case if (b) occurs then the Craggy Islanders deserve to go on and win title.
I think tomorrow has all the makings of a cracking match and much as I want to be in Murrayfield cheering Glasgow on there is a part of me which wouldn't mind Pat Lam getting the recognition he deserves. (Lam and Toonie to coach the Lions next year, anyone?)

Re: Super Saturday: Connacht v Glasgow Warriors
Absolutely, if by some chance Glasgow don't get to the final and Connacht do, the boys in Green will definitely have my support.
I worked out the various permutations of Saturday's matches, and the only way Glasgow will play Connacht in the semi-finals is (i) Glasgow and Connacht draw, Leinster get TBP, semi to be played in Glasgow; or (ii) Connacht beat Glasgow without TBP, and Leinster get TBP, with semi to be played in Galway.
Otherwise, it's still very much on for a Glasgow v Connacht final, which would be absolutely electric.
Counting my chickens? Yes, I have no chickens.

No you don't. But you do have a bird. Albeit one with the superpower of invisibility as you were conspicuously solitary when cheering Meatball's try on the tellybox last Friday.
p.s. 99.99% certain to be at Murrayfield. Just need to firm up the peripheral details: ticket, lodgings, transport, Glasgow actually being there, permission from MrsPip. You know, the peripheral details.

Re: Super Saturday: Connacht v Glasgow Warriors
Jim, you're blind, she was sat almost right behind me! Admittedly, her dark red hair (or 'vibrant copper' as I'm told, often) did get lost in the background.
Nice story actually, we couldn't get seats together, so she was sat in the same section but on the front row. As I walked up to my seat at the start of the match, the lovely old couple who've sat behind me for the last four years piped up and said "Have you ditched your woman, Ian? That's not good, son!".
They then offered me their spare seat, which their little grandson sometimes occupies. So Hagia Sophia got to hold court chatting to half of Glasgow behind me, as only she can, while I cheered for wee Dunky in front. As they say, there's something a bit special about Glaswegians. She's now a fully paid-up member of the #WarriorNation, just as I'm a full-on shirt-owning part of the #FalconsFamily.
I'd be delighted to see you in Edinburgh. Sophia and I are staying in Glasgow for the weekend and coming through for the day. Give me a shout if you want to meet up for lunch or a drink.

Re: Super Saturday: Connacht v Glasgow Warriors
Surprised there's no sign of Weir on the bench, given Russell's kicking lately thought being able to roll Meatball off the bench should things pan out that way would've seemed logical.
Re: Super Saturday: Connacht v Glasgow Warriors
Gloverman, Hornee to 10, Dunbar to 12 and to the rescue most likely.

Swinson, Nina and the Messiah off the bench offer impact. I've never been totally sold on Hart so I guess I must have missed the news bulletin saying why Pyrgos is broken. Price needs to have a good game and keep the error count low. If I was him, I would write on my wrist taping: "you are not Fijian, you are NOT Fijian".
What a blessing it is to have Horne able to cover 10. If Duncan Weir's name appears on the team sheet on any of the final games this season, I will be forced to drink heavily.

George,
as W.C. Fields once said, "It was a woman that drove me to drink. I'll be a son of a gun I forgot to thank her."
p.s. As you are the font of all things Ayr-related I may be arriving in Ayr on the morning of the final, what's the chances that Ayr RFC are running a charabanc through to Luvvieville?

Re: Super Saturday: Connacht v Glasgow Warriors
Excited for todays match! Both Connacht and Glasgow backlines looks potent, however, according to BBC weather its gonna be pretty wet. So may not be the game you'd expect on paper. I'm expecting a low scoring affair with fair few kicks at goal.
Wonder if Glasgow can make it 10 in a row? that would be impressive. Personally I think Connacht might sneak it, they look well organised. Good luck to both teams!
17 - 9 to Connacht is my prediction.

Maybe Treviso could beat Leinster, might be good odds on that one.

Unfortunately theres sh!tty weather today. Its annoying because the last few weeks have been decent and mostly dry but it sums up the luck the pro 12 had with the weather this season. I heard during the week that Ulsters win over Leinster last weekend was only the second time this season it was dry in the kingspan. It must be similar for the other sides.

Given that the league involves Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and Ireland we perhaps shouldn't be surprised that a lot of games play in rain...!
