Weeg crowd in fine voice the day. I swear I heard them sing a tartan army song just there.

Lots of defensive practice for our teams this weekend. Weeg handling it well. Dunbar is having a great game.

That's a ropey penas against the weeg there. No idea what he saw there that was illegal.

Was at the game and the East stand crowd was indeed in fine voice.

Weeg were a bit ropey first half but decent enough win in the end. Ospreys are a well drilled side.

Unfortunately Kebble came on, monstered an Os scrum and then took a pretty nasty looking injury.

By Christ it's much better watching rugby in the sun.

From the highlights Ospreys looked hopeless in the second half, but fantastic execution for all 4 tries.

Weirdly managed to get tickets, I think, for the weedge munner match in a couple of weeks... arent they usually announced with great fanfare and sell out in minutes? Dunno it has genuinely been a couple of years since I went to watch them so am interested to see how I feel about the crowd there.

It was so much easier to blame Them. It was bleakly depressing to think They were Us. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

And as I write that I get a tweet from Glasgow saying tickets are in sale and going quick. Think I may just had fortunate timing there.

Well you certainly didn't pick the right game if you're hoping to have your faith in the crowd restored... they will be on Munners backs all game.

Yeah, the weeg crowd must be one of the loudest in the UK, Edinburgh is one of the quietest

Yeah but its munner. Last weedge munner game I was at a loud irish voice at one point shouted "play rugby glasgow" needless to say munner were losing at the time, and the guy got some very deserved pelters.

On another note. Montpellier appear to have started the season well. Should be some set of games in europe.

Hopefully going by the shirt number Horne is the back up 9 and Matawalu wing cover. Horne needs game time at 9.

Lots of different wings getting a chance. Do we think Jackson is first choice 15 until Hogg is back?

It appears that way. Seems like Pyrgos is the back up 9 too. Despite some thinking he'd fall away, it is yet another club or country coach seeing him as a leader.

Agree. I don't mind Pyrgos and think he's had more of a dip in form than anything else. Would certainly give him a shot to get back in the team if he's doing the business in training.

Yeah, his dip came at the wrong time and he isnt as exciting as Price or Horne but he was very good the season before last

Did I just watch R Jackson run about 10m BACKWARDS? This is professional rugby FFS.
