Given Hadden's Edinburgh select, if we have a full squad we might have a chance of a rare away win !!

But given that Beattie and Murray didn't play last week , it's possible that whoever's going to be playing for Scotland next week won't be playing. So that's Parks ,Kellock, Henderson at least possibly gone as well . Anyone know if Gregor's fit yet ?

Good to see Kellock, Parks and Henderson all playing for Glasgow tomorrow, surely we must have a chance.

Also good to see Gregor back.

Rumour has it that our strting props will be Kevin and Murray Low - don't know if a rare win will be possible! Clearly Sean hasn't had time to send someone along to watch Low play for Grammar, if they had I think we might be someone else line up along side Kev!!Great to Beattie get his chance with Scotland, week in week out he is consistantly good.

Moray Low has been outstanding in a struggling Aberdeen Grammar side this season, not sure why you suggest otherwise.

I've only seen Moray play for the back-up team this season, but "outstanding" was the word used in a couple of newspaper reports about his club form this season. Seems quite a few people share that opinion as he's in the 'A' team too.

Delighted to see our young players are receiving the full support of Glasgow fans.

"Outstanding" how many grammar games have you watched this season?! Don't think too many people up north would agree with that description but each to their own. Only one way to tell how good he really is and I'm sure Friday will be a good test for him but I hope Shade isn't left feeling foolish after the game when he reviews the forwards selection.

I've seen Moray twice, at Ayr and then when Hawks went to Aberdeen. On both occasions he was an absolute standout for Grammar.

Moray Low's more than capable player to step up. I've seen him play many times for Calendonia at U18 & 21 levels, Scotland U21s and a few times with Aberdeen GSFP. He's always given 100% in every match I've seen.

Edinburgh were interested in signing him for their pro team. Northampton Saints, Leicester Tigers & Newcastle Falcons were also keeping an eye on him.

He's able to step into loose and tight-head positions in the front row with comfort and isn't afraid to mix it with the opposite front row.
