That try on about 45 was a peach, Horne (2nd choice) - Jackson (2nd choice) - Lee Jones? (2nd choice) - Grigg? (2nd choice), blimey that was a class act and they made it look so simple!
I thought the forwards held up very well, Warriors well and truly punctured Munster's bubble - tee hee!

No, it was depressing because it hammered home just how far ahead of us Glasgow are, and made me wonder if we'll ever see Edinburgh put a team like Munster to the sword like that again (and I think I know the answer to that).

that isn't what is depressing. What is depressing is that Edinburgh have shown that they can front up to the Weegies, but can't be arsed in other games to show the same commitment. They can do it, they don't unless they think its a Scotland trial. Some gutting out needed and some players with guts brought in

I don't know where you get this front up to the weegies. It took us 13 years to get an away win and how many years to get the cup back

The last three years we have. We've won four odds the last six games and two of the last three cups.
