First topic message reminder :

Glasgow Warriors v Zebre
Friday 14th February 2020
Scotstoun Stadium
Glasgow

KO 19.35

Live on Premier Sport

Well what could be more romantic than taking your loved one to a chilly Scotstoun to see the mighty Warriors take on the Zebre. The counsellors and the divorce lawyers may well have a field day!

Hard to see anything other than a Glasgow 5 pointer here. Zebre have been playing a bit better this season, but shorn of their internationals, are going to struggle against Glasgow who can still get out a pretty strong side.

It will be interesting to see who Toonie releases back to DR foer this one, a few international squad players could maybe do with some game time. Hopefully we will see a team looking something like this:


1. Keeble
2. Turner
3. Nicol
4. Nakarawa
5. Davidson
6. Flockhart
7. Gordon
8. Fagerson M
9. Dobie (would really like to see him get a start and surely this is the match to try him out)
10. Horne P
11. VDM
12. McDowell
13. Grigg
14. Niko
15. Bryce

Subs:

Seuili
Dolokoto (about time we had a look at him)
Nuke (if he is fit, the new Argentinian if not)
Swinson
Vakalolama (again time to see what the fuss is about)
Horne G (could do with a run off the bench)
Jackson
Steyn

Dolokoto gets another

He looks like he might be our next Fiji hero!

Great run from Steyn to make it

56-24 Glasgow

That did not look likely at 35 mins!

George Horne MoM, hard to argue with that

That was a really good game. Dolokoto looks fun.

Did someone say, at half-time that Furra Linee needed to kick more? I thought he looked very good in the second half.

All credit to Zebre they really tried to play good rugby.

DoubleD looks fun

Blimey, that Jamie Dobie looks a talent. Does the basics so well and has some turn of pace. The future looks bright at SH!

Keep that form up and we may yet make the playoffs

Gee, I'm fairly certain that Cheetahs CAN'T make the playoffs for some arcane contractual rule so we should be pretty much alright for third spot even if we finish fourth.
However, winning two away playoff matches to get to the final might be asking too much.

Cheetahs can make the playoffs, but can't qualify for Europe.

There would literally be no point in them being in the competition if they weren't allowed in the playoffs!

Indeed they made the playoffs in their first year in the comp

Third spot is potentially there for us, but we will have to work for it

Ignore me I haven't had my methamphetamines and absinthe yet.
