I’m very happy with the Scotland team just announced and hot off the virtual press. I think MacDonald is probably worth a first cap...
Well, well, well. Hopefully by now the hangovers have worn off, and the “did that really happen?” feeling has not. And so to a little bit of post-match analysis...
Southwell at fly-half? Never saw that one coming, though apparently he has been featuring at first receiver during play for Stade. Decent enough defense, and a solid left boot (some days). Could be very interesting, damn shame its not on the telly...
What, no Evans? Bit risky that one Robbo, but it makes my job easier…isn’t copy and paste wonderful? Scotland team to play Australia: Rory Lamont, Sean Lamont, Alex Grove, Graeme ...
Scotland 23-10 Fiji But having said that, it was more clinical than we are used to, wasn’t it? How many times have we seen the scrum-half break (usually Mike Blair) with no-one on his shoulder ...
Well done to Alex Grove on his debut cap; I reckon it’s a good idea to give him a shot against Fiji. More interesting even than that is the suprise absence of Thom Evans from the 22, given ...
Rugby Fashion brand Front Up continues to bring the high street to the club house with their latest range of rugby inspired t shirts, polos and hoodies and now we’ve teamed up with them to ...
Andy Robinson has announced Scotland is to have two captains for the autumn internationals—incumbent Mike Blair, and widely touted replacement Chris Cusiter, who led the A team to victory in the IRB Nations Cup...
Despite another virus rifling through the Glasgow team this week, Sean Lineen has named the team close to full strength for Friday in an attempt to pilfer some away points from an Ospreys team that will be shorn of some of its top line Welsh talent...
Edinburgh got a well deserved, if unspectacular, win at home to Munster on Friday while Glasgow laboured in the second half but eventually secured the expected four-try bonus point against Connacht...
Scotland squad : John Barclay (Glasgow Warriors), Johnnie Beattie (Glasgow Warriors), Mike Blair (Edinburgh), Kelly Brown (Glasgow Warriors), Ben Cairns (Edinburgh), Geoff Cross (Edinburgh), ...
I’m away this weekend and so will probably miss the games. Hopefully the boys can get their campaigns back on track after disappointments on their last outings...
Stade Francais 31 Edinburgh 7 Glasgow 18 Biarritz 22 Ugh. Edinburgh flatter to deceive (get hammered), and Glasgow come close, but fail to squeeze out the result they definitely deserved. So far, so Scottish teams in the Heineken Cup...
So Europe’s finest club competition shuffles into view, unloads its wagon, sends the freaks round the back to get the candy floss machine running and erects a big top suitable for showcasing ...
Well done to Edinburgh for a good result away from home, facing down an admittedly poor Cardiff team and coping with the usual performance from G. Clancy, Esq. Did I say Edinburgh? Oh, I meant Glasgow...
Edinburgh team to face Ospreys: Steve Jones, Mark Robertson, Nick De Luca, John Houston, Tim Visser, Phil Godman, Mike Blair (capt), Allan Jacobsen, Andrew Kelly, Geoff Cross, Craig Hamilton, Scott MacLeod, Scott Newlands, Alan MacDonald, Allister Hogg...
In addition to STVs ever improving highlights package on Sunday, this weekend you can also catch the Cardiff vs Glasgow game on S4C at 1820 on Saturday and Ospreys vs Edinburgh on Sunday at 1550, ...
No sign of this anywhere else, so it may be something of an exclusive, but blog reader and NYC-based Scotland fan David H wrote in with a discovery he made on a US rugby website selling what ...
Congrats to Edinburgh who scraped a win at Ulster over the weekend. Things are looking good if they can still nick an away victory even whilst under the kosh and in front of a partisan crowd...
Glasgow Warriors (to face Dragons tonight): Bernardo Stortoni, Rob Dewey, Peter Murchie, Graeme Morrison (capt), Colin Shaw, Dan Parks, Mark McMillan, Justin Va’a, Dougie Hall, Ed Kalman, ...
http://www.magnersleague.com/matchcentre/table.php You might not see the likes again! It was also good to see Sean Lamont having a decent game against Glasgow; no doubt Andy Robinson would have been watching...
So this weekend we had both Edinburgh and Glasgow beating top clubs (if not their top teams) and the arrival of a new TV programme...
It seems a new Scotland away kit has quietly sneaked out New Scotland Alternative Strip It’s pretty similar to the old one apart from a) they got rid of the stupid patchy bits that made ...
Yes indeed the news you have all been waiting for has arrived. Everyone can watch the 1872 cup games live on terrestrial TV, plus highlights from Edinburgh and Glasgow’s Magners games this season...
Sean Lineen announced his first Glasgow Warriors squad of the season, fresh from a narrow preseason victory over Kelly Brook’s boyfriend and the rest of the Wasps...
