[QUOTE="Bluemoon, post: 672302, member: 38204"] Calm down Thingimubob!! The pack were much improved again today against a team that are always pushing for top 4. The maul and scrum were particularly pleasing, as well as the line out. I am happy that an improvement has been made there for now. Vosawai was excellent today and Turnbull continues to look like a great singing. However, I fear for our back line. The coaches keep changing the lineups and brining in new young players every game. Owen Jenkins last week, A. Thomas this week and it's all a bit of a mess. There was no bite in attack, despite the fact we had a strong platform for a lot of that game. The unforced errors and poor kicks through really hurt the Blues and everything was forced. Too many of the backs were running head on into contact without looking for or having any support. Cuthbert was guilty of this when he had support at times. Cardiff looked a bit shapeless at times and I am concerned considering we have Ulster next week. Glasgow sat back and dictated the pace of the game nicely. I wouldn't say they were comfortable, but they absorbed mostly any attack Cardiff tried to run and slowed the game down considerably. They did well today and played a very smart and sensible game. [/QUOTE]
