Ah come on man, that’s no excuse whatsoever. They are just second best here.

Besides, I don’t know about anyone on here, but the minute you don’t go 100% in a game tends to be the minute you get injured.

Indeed. There's their Scotland places to play for.

Time for some CoD I think. This is embarrassing.

There’s not getting injured and there’s playing touch.

They keep attacking Jones/ Matawalu. I think the gaps are probably the latter’s fault, but not sure.

Price looked like he took a sore one there.

Price needs to get a grip with his feeding of the scrum.

He can do it in training now. Not his best game but there are others out there not performing very well today. I didn’t mean to single him out.

Please sub off Huw Jones. Don’t need an injury.

Change in halfback has made an immediate impact.

I've got a lot of time for mini Horne.

Halfbacks that treat every set piece and every ruck as a means of trying to milk penalties only really piss me off.

Turner’s clear-out there looked a little naughty. Anyway, good try.

Don’t think I’ll watch next week. Looking forward to seeing the new stadium in Paris later.

Well that was shit. We would have struggled with our best team nevermind that bunch.
Glasgow seem to be missing an inspirational leader. They seem to just click out every game.
Defence on Matawalu's wing was a big issue. Clearly need to find a better 10 than Horne for next season.

Hastings is fit but still too inexperienced? Jacko fully not considered a 10 anymore?

Hastings was apparently the star on the show at Currie yesterday. It is prem level but being the star is what you want your prospects being at that level.

That result could be a significant mental boost for Leinster if/when they play the weeg later in the year. Glasgow shouldn't be shipping 50 to anyone.

Hastings isn't registered so it's a moot point.

Whether he should have been registered is up for debate.

Someone else seems to have spotted it. I couldn’t tell at the time, and I’m not sure that footage is conclusive either way.

My reply was talking about the point Horne isn't the answer for next season.

I'm no Turner fan but I don't see a whole lot that would have me up in arms about it should it happen to one of our teams. Certainly not to the point of any colour of card.

I think the most important thing to take from all this is that I spotted it first.

But he’s clearing out a tackler. That guy isn’t part of a ruck. You don’t get to just smash the nearest player as soon as a tackle is made.

Yes you do as long as its positive and over the ball player thats exactly what you can do

I don’t know exactly where you draw the line but that doesn’t seem anything like a positive play. The Leinster player isn’t contesting the ball in any way. It’s not clearing a player away from anything, it’s just diving into a tackler as he hits the ground.

I don’t think it was an awful foul but I don’t think it was legal or particularly productive.

I’m really not sure Turner is bright enough for this game, though he seems to have some talent.

Yeah , i can see it from your point of view, seen a few this season of first arrivers diving through as they expect someone to be there or the person that is there isnt really in a strong position

Turner has signed a two year deal.
