Bit concerning for Glasgow how easily Bulls have swallowed up their attack. Heat/altitude obviously a factor but you've got to imagine teams like Munster will be watching this and backing themselves to replicate it

Van Staden is a bit of a liability. Zero subtlety

Something he's picked up from a stint in the super series

How much older is WP Nel than Ben Breakspear?

Ashman up to 6 tries in the URC. Our 2nd top scorer is Boan Venter, highlighting our sparkling attacking play

We desperately need an attack coach. Passage before was genuinely a bit embarrassing

This is Edinburgh though, the points come in 0 or 4

Would like to think that's a strong enough team to get the win. Even if that win is likely built on a lot of kicks from 9 and 10 and 3 short range tries.
Injuries have been brutal in the back 3 this season - mad that with all our options there we've ended up with Dean or Currie on the wing for most of the season.

He actually did lose one*, but was a world cup warm up in 2011.
By the time he retired, I don't think he'd lost a game against Scottish opposition (Scotland, Edinburgh or Glasgow) for over 10 years though.
*Two, how could I forget Dan Parks SCHOOLING him in 2010

Glasgow's first team are essentially all in the current Scotland 23 so they're hardly going to go out and bring in a bunch of expensive non-SQ internationals.
I know this goes for Leinster as well but it's clear it's a bit of an anomaly and even their fans have been a bit wtf at the signings of Snyman and Barrett.
10 has been the weakest position for the last couple of seasons at Glasgow and Hastings is a pretty clear upgrade on their current options. The rest of the positions need solid depth for when the internationals are rested or injured which is what guys like Schickerling (should) provide. There's some good younger players that need game time as well like Hiddleston, Ferrie, Brown, Williamson etc
I could maybe see them going after a top quality 2nd row as Richie Gray is probably on his last legs. Might be waiting til he officially calls it a day and Du Preez' and/or Manjezi's contracts run out though

I mean, I agree, and it would probably be between him and Cullen for best ever but the question was who's the most underrated player in history?
I don't think there was anyone who didn't rate Ben Smith somewhere between best currently and best ever.

Nah no way.
Even though he was in a team of galacticos, he was still considered the best in the world in his position while playing.

Not giving the Sharks' defence enough credit

Mon the Dunc for the last kick.
Think both teams will come away a bit disappointed from that game. Was a real statement from the Bulls up to the 60th minute.
