'Glasgow's swagger is back as semi-final looms'
Glasgow's swagger has returned.
On a night where several players made their final home appearance, a sense of pride, emotion and determination was in the air at Scotostoun as the Warriors swept into the semis with an 18-point win against Stormers.
Glasgow produced some of their best attacking rugby in weeks. Player of the game went to Rory Darge but it genuinely could have been one of about 10 of Franco Smith's men.
The lynchpin of the Glasgow turnaround has been the returning Sione Tuipulotu, who makes his team-mates better.
Stormers were left chasing their tail with so many missed tackles but the attacking verve of Glasgow was a joy on the eye.
Now a third trip to Dublin in two months awaits. Leinster are the number one seeds for a reason and boast a squad many teams could only dream of, but can Glasgow upset the odds?
The injury list may be shrinking but we are still without Zander Fagerson and Jack Dempsey, two players that can make a difference.
The Leinster pack can be dominant and it's probably been a weakness in recent games for Warriors.
The squad will need to believe to get over the line for a trip to the grand final. Can they counter the press defence of Leinster? Time will tell. Come on Glasgow!
