Seymour looks like he's added a yard of pace ... Looking absolutely RAPID.

F*ck me what a well executed try. It finally came off! Lee Jones is just so slippery - like an eel.

How is Nick Williams still professional? He looks and plays like a fat dad.

13-10 at the break is a hell of a result for Glasgow. This has been one of the worst performances ever. Cardiff will be fuming.

Weeg very much a second half team, if they perform then they should take the lead & pull away.

Seymour. No idea why.

What a field from Finn! Great pass to Jones who dots down.

Considering how Edinburgh have performed over the years I think that letting Jones go because he wasn't good enough is one of the stupidest Scottish rugby decisions in recent years. He may not always start but he is just such an important player for Glasgow these days. He rarely sets a foot wrong.

Grigg and Fagerson should have done better to tackle that Cardiff 15. You're not front row forwards lads.

Niko trying to force himself into the 9 spot was funny to watch.

For a kiwi Gibbins looks very unsure of himself when he makes a break. He's been clean through twice now.

Fancy that. Change the front row that was getting mullered and get a scrum penalty...

NB I don't think Bhatti, Fagerson and Turner were particularly in the wrong - Murphy is a shocking ref. But he was penalising them left, right and centre regardless of whether it was right or wrong. Took a while for those changes to come.

If you needed proof that Murphy was an awful ref, there you go. Cuthbert interferes with the jumper and its a knock on to Cardiff? Ok.....

What a knob. That's never offside in a million years - perfectly lined up tackle. A brilliant one that forced the knock on no less.

Murphy needs stood down after this. WTF? He hasn't got a clue at scrum time.

You could see the weeg boys celebrating as soon as they broke up - the Glasgow superiority was that blatant. Only to realise it's a Cardiff pen.

Just as well Shingler choked and missed the pen.

That's a banging result for the weeg. Away from home and playing the worst rugby they've played in quite some time.

Cardiff? Alarm bells must be ringing. An on-song Glasgow would have put 7 or 8 tries past 'em.

Ref was bad for both but the rain helped Cardiff , on a dry night the week would have put that dross to bed,

Week do need to learn to play a bit ca canny when the rain is pouring.

The rain wasn't that bad - looked like light rain/spitting on TV. And Murphy was constantly guessing in favour of Cardiff at scrum time. That isn't just as bad for both sides.

That is a good result considering it was an awful performance. Good ambition and lines but the hands just let them down again and again.

They'll be even more fun to watch this year though

Fugly.

Both sides trying their best to lose that one. Fortunately McShingler shat his breeks.

Pyrgos conceded about 6 turnovers alone. Matawalu another three or four. We're not going to scare anyone in Europe with our pack and the likes of Brown, Gray and Kebble out for a while. Quite like the look of Turner but his hands look dodgy. Ashe and Gibbins should be in the first team on current form.

Didn't have his best game but hopefully Dunbar not out for too long.

Typo, but I think I'm going to stick with that from now on.
