Did he really do much there?

I can't tell anymore. I just hate Saracens so much.

So many fucking neck rolls though.

Just a penalty mate. :shock:

The quality of reffing in top flight rugby has been stagnant for ages. And that quality is piss poor.

Not really but they've been doing it off the ball all game. Wilson in particular. I was expecting it to be pinged at some point.

What a bent little twat this ref is. Where's the card? Gibbons quite rightly pointing out that was the third offence in that period of play. Doesn't give a shat.

I'm not sure how he hasnt at least looked at some of the clearouts. First 15 mins in particular, Sarries were flying off their feet.

Glasgow steping up physically but not creating a whole load. Still in the game though

Saracens are the new Leicester. Brutally efficient but right on the edge of the law (and beyond) and pretty dull.

Why have these stupid, shallow cross-kicks in your own half become an everyday thing? High risk, low reward, might gain 5 metres, might give away a try. I don't get it.

On the other channel the ref has made a great call. Whitehouse could easily have said that was obstruction but gives a penalty try and a YC against Toulon

It feels like every Glasgow move is designed to get Hogg in to space, but then it's just Jackson.

Okay. Well Andy Nicol just said exactly the same thing. So... it's probably wrong.

Know what you mean on Jackson. Has done a good job for Glasgow but he's not great at this level.

Passes need to be a little crisper when we get near their line too

Turner is the king of the no-look pass. The thing is it's given away more points than it's ever created. What an absolute melon.

That burst of 3/4 mistakes by Turner really didn't help things. He does odd things superbly and then absolutely fluffs the basics. Infuriating to watch.

Why wasn't any of the international kickers stepping back into the pocket there? 3pts as good as 5 at that point. Both would get a losing BP.

Dunbar would have been useful in the later stages

Frustrating in the end but did very well at the things I thought they would struggle with. Were very physical and defended superbly (as do Saracens). Promising that they have fixed some of last years issues. Lose a lot of sparkle in attack without Hogg (and Seymour) though.

When I say "fixed" I am aware it could go horribly wrong next time they are tested
