Hadn't heard of Belousov before but at a glance the guy appears to have actual qualifications.

They could be on a double digit losing run and still be mustard on interpro day.

Kudos to Glasgow for sticking in it. That probably cements them top spot now.

Best we can do is a semifinal in Dublin, as feared. And Bulls aren't turning over Glasgow at home.

Wasn't shedding too many tears. Glasgow always get Zebre shaped bonus rounds each year so no harm in a few competitive games.

Would've been fairer on later in the day but Bulls always the better side. We'd pretty much everything go right a few weeks ago.
