Clear slip from Afoa - second scrum is whats going to happen for the rest of the game

Slipped, schmipped, Dodge - put on his arse I'd say!

Clever from Afoa, dropped Moray Low on top of the ball and sealing it is

Cheers!

Welcome

Two offsides at least there

And that's just from the ref!

Murchie FFS!

Pretty whistle happy Gauzere

Could Chris Henry be lying any more on the wrong side? Let him lie on the Glasgow whitewash, I say

Looking a tad damp out there the night...

Court in at an angle the whole time

The colossus Nick Williams up to his old tricks.

Never mind the fans and the players! Think about the poor protesters! However will the scumbags light their fireworks in this weather!

Good try - Rob Harley, hang your head in shame

like a hammer hitting a meringue! give nick an Ulster passport

That is why Pyrgos must not play for Scotland again - brainfart extraordinaire

Nick Williams is playing out of his skin.

Glasgow going thru the motions - why bother turning up? Poor

Can I have a link too please?

Pretty poor start from Glasgow - Low is playing himself out of a Scotland place

PM caz.

What the hell was wrong with that? Ryder clearly on his feet?

Lovely turnover

Feic this commentator is truly awful

Sit down, fatty

Ta

off his feet my hole

Pyrgos having a very good game defincively - Mike Blair-esque in his covering!

RDW, his passing is too variable and under pressure he goes to pieces - not international material imho

Could've pulled out

on a positive note - Beattie just scored a try against cardiff!

0/2 from the tee from Weir so far.

Thats what she said...

Pyrgos not having fun out there.

Neither easy attempts

Yup, classic Henry - quick tap penalty that he kicks over his own head and drops - OMG

Bit of a messy half there! All Ulster unfortunately for the weedge...

Pienaar is just such a classy player. So composed.

Mixed bag from pyrgos, he is trying to spark things but it isn't coming off for him.
Low is being destroyed.

Ulster doing things smart, Glasgow need to focus and get into the game

Dean ryan ripping into low at half time. Doesn't bode well for his 6 nations chances.

At least with swinson, matawalu and hogg glasgow have impact players. Just need weir to get us back in the game. If he can't slot the kicks he should go for touch and get territory.

Sounds like it's been a bunch of old sh i te from a Weedgie perspective so far.

Both UM offside

High from Diack

As I'm not watching it what I'm imagining him doing is quite impressive. Quick tap, running backwards, kicks it over his head, turns around and catches then drops the ball. Gutsy move to try you have to admit.

Link in a pm if you want it Scot Abroad.
