Ever since the shocking defeat to Scarlets, Glasgow haven't looked back. The incredible two victories against Edinburgh at Christmas plus impressive wins in the Champions Cup show Glasgow are one of the premier teams in European rugby. Against Sale and Toulouse we came from behind to triumph, but last weekend in France the Warriors took the lead against Clermont and never relinquished it.
Ever since the shocking defeat to Scarlets, Glasgow haven't looked back. Six straight wins have followed.
The incredible two victories against Edinburgh at Christmas plus impressive wins in the Champions Cup show Glasgow are one of the premier teams in European rugby.
Against Sale and Toulouse we came from behind to triumph, but last weekend in France the Warriors took the lead against Clermont and never relinquished it.
It is a sign of growth within this team that even at 13 players (after Patrick Schickerling and George Horne in the same play were given a yellow card) they stayed composed.
There were noticeable highlights. The return of Huw Jones, the leadership of Kyle Steyn, the try-scoring, hard-hitting runs from Jack Dempsey, and a breakout game in Europe for Euan Ferrie.
A five-try run in a dominant 33-21 away win not only puts Glasgow top of the group but secures our place in the knockout stages. A big message could be sent on Sunday if Warriors knock off Saracens.
It is a massive opportunity to make this impressive European run even more memorable. Saracens travel north with world class-stars such as Maro Itoje, Owen Farrell and Ben Earl, but there is nothing to fear for Glasgow.
