You may be right. If not fit then Warwick?

Has he played there before? Think Andrew did a reasonably good job against Connacht and, as I have said, seems to be improving as he gets game time. Watching the game again though, he did look a bit headless for one of the Connacht tries. If Gilroy comes in at 15, then McCloskey benches.

That would be my choice personally ... Gilroy has more experience and looked as busy as he has all season last week.

Should be able to win this. Glasgow have their own injuries and a fairly congested fixture list. We should have enough quality to get over the line if the heads are right.

Best defences in the league ... but we've score over 100 points more ... huge game for both sides any win would do me.

I was examining the table at the w/e and was surprised to learn that Glasgow have only secured 1 TBP all season.

Gilroy had a couple of games at 15 in the brief period before Christmas where Tommy was back from Lions and before he got injured in the AIs. We had a couple of games where 15-11 was Gilroy-Trimble-Payne-Marshall-Bowe. Also had Olding at FB for home to Cardiff, which was interesting.
It's the hope that kills you.

Luke Marshall can cover 10 so why not McCloskey and Andrew/Gilroy?
From the rolling glens of Antrim through the hills of Donegal we will stand and shout for Ulster as we win both scrum and maul from the lovely lakes of Fermanagh tae the shores of ould Lough Gall we will scream and shout for Ulster as we beat them one and all!

Thank you Russ, mind you I had asked a question; didn't expect to be set upon! It'll be a hard enough game and yer man McKinney does not fill me with confidence.

I wasn't having a go, I've never heard of Luke playing 10.

In my defence you didn't ask a question, you stated that he can cover 10.
