    Glasgow Warriors v Zebre in the PRO12 kicked off about 10 min ago 7/0 to Glasgow. 1 try down at least 3 to go for Glasgow who will be looking for a bonus point win, only problem think rain may be on it’s way to Glasgow so need to try get the tries sooner rather than later

    Rossouw de Klerk and Josh Strauss starting for Glasgow.

    Zebre no. 9 gets a yellow for stupid raking at ruck right in front of ref

    A few phases after lineout from very good kick out as result of penalty Glasgow get a penalty another lineout secured and another line out now for Glasgow who maul it over and TMO is being called to check if it is a try.

    Ball dotted down BUT there may have been obstruction, ohhh lucky it is given to Chris Fusaro.

    Glasgow 14/0 Zebre 22nd min now

    Richie Vernon on as sub for Glasgow think for Peter Horne who had just kicked the conversion

  • 8

    Bullscot on 6 March 2015 at 10:02 pm

    Peter Horne not coming back due to concussion didn’t see what happened was odd as it was so soon after he converted Fusaro try that he went off

    Zebre on the attack deep in Glasgow territory but Glasgow get a scrum for knock on, Matawalu does well to kick ball out near halfway from near his line.

    Bullscot on 6 March 2015 at 10:07 pm

    Kevin Bryce scores a great try sprinting through a gap and shaking off a few defenders after the move unit started with Magic Matawalu taking a quick tap penalty and gaining good ground before offloading he was involved again in the move before it was a score.

    Bullscot on 6 March 2015 at 10:09 pm

    Matawalu dives over in the corner!!! But checking if he was in touch first.

    No try ruled his foot went out as he was tackled by Bergamassco in the process of going over.

    Another yellow for Zebre who had been warned and have been very cynical a lot of the game. Glasgow opt to take penalty scrum about 6m out

  • 14

    Bullscot on 6 March 2015 at 10:15 pm

    Glasgow pass it into touch after a few pick and drives but they get a lineout after yet another Zebre penalty. Crazy stuff as Berganassco the forward gets the yellow.

    Rain is pouring down now at Scotstoun.

    Bullscot on 6 March 2015 at 10:18 pm

    DTH scores in the left corner! Too easy, quick recycling and he takes two defenders with him on his way over.

    Lovely kick by Connor Braid pins Zebre back. Zebre eventually have a scrum and its almost half time

    Glasgow 26/5 Zebre 69 min. Glasgow been pinned deep in their territory for a while, pouring with rain.

  • 22

    Bullscot on 6 March 2015 at 11:16 pm

    Still 26/5 74th min. Sean Lamont at centre for Glasgow tonight just had to be stretchered off, fell awkwardly going for a ball popping out a ruck and landed on his leg, looks like damage to his right leg hope its not too bad and Scotland team management will be concerned.

    Bullscot on 6 March 2015 at 11:26 pm

    Final score Glasgow 26/5 Zebre as Glasgow get a penalty and hoof it into touch with the rain still pouring down. No points in second half for Glasgow but already secured the bonus point in first half. Job done.
