"Glasgow secured their place in the URC semi-finals with a 33-21 win over Connacht at Scotstoun. Chris: Brilliant to see Scott Cummings back but I think Alex Samuel might be even harder in the physicality stakes. Backs delivered too, although George Horne's injury looked serious - hopefully not as bad as it looks.
