Glasgow Warriors vs Exeter Chiefs Live Match Centre

Follow all the action on the RugbyPass live blog from the Heineken Champions Cup match between Glasgow Warriors vs Exeter Chiefs at Scotstoun.

Gallagher Premiership leaders Exeter need a point from their remaining games against Glasgow and La Rochelle to win Pool Two, but they could require victories in both to guarantee a home quarter-final.

“Being top of our pool, it’s obviously where you want to be,” Chiefs rugby director Rob Baxter said. “Last time we went there (Glasgow), we probably didn’t do ourselves justice, nor did we get the result we wanted.

“Now, we have that challenge all over again, and it’s up to us to do better than last time and keep things in our own hands.”

Scotland full-back Stuart Hogg lines up for Exeter against his former club, and fly-half Joe Simmonds captains the Chiefs instead of Dave Dennis, who is sidelined due to illness.

Scotland 7s cap Glenn Bryce starts at full-back for Glasgow, one of eleven changes made by Dave Rennie following last weekend’s Guinness PRO14 victory at Benetton.

GLASGOW WARRIORS: 15. Glenn Bryce; 14. Tommy Seymour, 13. Huw Jones, 12. Samuel Johnson, 11. Kyle Steyn; 10. Adam Hastings, 9. George Horne; 1. Oli Kebble, 2. Fraser Brown, 3. Zander Fagerson, 4. Scott Cummings, 5. Jonny Gray, 6. Ryan Wilson, 7. Callum Gibbins (capt), 8. Matt Fagerson. Reps: 16. George Turner, 17. Aki Seiuli, 18. Adam Nicol, 19. Robert Harley, 20. Chris Fusaro, 21. Ali Price, 22. Peter Horne, 23. Niko Matawalu.

EXETER CHIEFS: 15. Stuart Hogg; 14. Jack Nowell, 13. Ian Whitten, 12. Ollie Devoto, 11. Olly Woodburn; 10. Joe Simmonds (capt), 9. Nic White; 1. Alec Hepburn, 2. Luke Cowan-Dickie, 3. Enrique Pieretto, 4. Jannes Kirsten, 5. Sean Lonsdale, 6. Dave Ewers, 7. Jacques Vermeulen, 8. Matt Kvesic. Reps: 16. Elvis Taione, 17. Ben Moon, 18. Marcus Street, 19. Will Witty, 20.

France player ratings vs Argentina | Autumn Nations Series

This France team is as good as they were when they went into the World Cup as favorites. Have gone through a rebuild of confidence and rediscovered that form.

Neither England nor Ireland will trouble this team in the 6N. That’s my prediction.

And I guess about time too. Considering that France has won but one 6N title in 6 seasons despite being the best French team for generations thriving off the platform which is the Top 14.

They must just beware of peaking too soon and going to Australia over confident.

Which is also why I thinks it’s absolutely bonkers that France isn’t sending there best players to New Zealand next year. Yes, it isn’t Australia, but getting some SH travel experience makes more sense than not.

Five changes for the All Blacks, including the return of Sam Cane

I'm not meaning to criticise the players, it's a professional game, this is their livelihood so all power to them. I am aiming criticism at the selectors. Italy is the perfect opportunity to give players of the future a game such as Lakai, Love etc. There is a finite number of tests until the next world cup to develop the team, we are wasting one today.

‘Right a few wrongs’: Ex-Wales flyer’s message of intent with Crusaders

The Crusaders have signed a few "senior pros" recently. Smart recruitment to pass knowledge on to younger players or an indication that the much vaunted Kiwi player pipeline is in decline?

'I don't think Steve Borthwick would pick Jack Willis even if he's playing in England'

He has for tomorrow and incredibly brought back Curry to bench Cunningham South. For me from the squad it should have been Cunningham South in the team with Ted Hill on the bench.

France put World Cup pain behind them with unbeaten run in November

Actually it did not go directly into touch it went "backwards" from his hand (continuing forwards from the perspective of the ball) to go to ground in the in goal area and then because it was spinning went back out of in goal to go into touch. I thought that quite harsh as he could have been trying to scoop the ball upwards to be able to catch it himself which would have been legitimate - he certainly did not direct it towards touch.

The verdict on Felipe Contepomi after Los Pumas' last tango in Paris

Excellent year. I have enjoyed the Pumas with every match they played. They are truly one of the top tier nations and with more growth they will push hard for top 3 world ranking. They are just a bit up and down like the French team of old.

Pablo Matera returns from ban as Argentina change 3 for Ireland

Funny that I read this after watching last night's game where Matera packed down at openside every signle time. Jaguares also used to play with OS/BS flankers when he was with them. Of course, if he's at 8 or not involved, Pumas could do it the French way and put, let's say, Kremer on the right and Golzalez on the left. You're correct about Matera's tenure at Crusaders where he was mainly used at blindside but also at #8 on occasion as far as I remember. He has the frame and skillset to play whichever back row position he's put at, much like Ardie or Jack Willis or Pocock.

Why England's defence of the realm has crumbled without Felix Jones

Doesn't sound like FJ is doing anything of the sort to be fair. When your head coach says he's not spoken to him but claims he's doing work in the background... That work must be really productive if the coaches aren't bothering to look at it.

Why England's defence of the realm has crumbled without Felix Jones

It's so English... Our football teams have been doing it since time immemorial. Score a goal in the first minute then 10 men defending in the box for the next 89!

Although Eddie picked it up and ran with it when he used to pick Wigglesworth to come on and close out games. Now unsurprisingly with Wigglesworth as the head coach it has continued.. coincidence or something more sinister?

Why England's defence of the realm has crumbled without Felix Jones

You’d hope so. The A game is good for the guys close to selection.

Must say I didn’t think Tom was a standout in the A game but it’s the only game I’ve watched him this season that he wasn’t.

Luke Reimer was a clear MoM from our perspective - hard to believe Tizzano, for all his effort, is considered a better option to back up FMR. He’s a world class breakdown threat, he’s a powerful defender, and his carrying has really stepped up.

I would argue that Pearson and Willis are elite. The Willis in France, even better. Pollock is exciting. Could be anything.

I’d pick Pearson ahead of Earl and the Curry’s. Bigger and more physical than Earl, more skilled than Curry(s).

to help the referee's decision, it seems he also deliberately push the ball directly in touch. But already the first yellow card and some penalties showed a lack of discipline.
