 IOL: Bath overcome Glasgow Warriors
Warriors survived a shaky first half to reach the interval just seven points in arrears, but Grewcock struck in lethal style seconds after the restart.
Glasgow had made a rip-roaring start, testing the Bath backline defence with a series of potent surges and they edged in front with a 22-metre penalty from Dan Parks after the visitors were lured offside.
Glasgow piled on the pressure in the frantic closing stages, but a combination of spilled passes and stout defence by Bath staved off any meaningful fightback.

 Glasgow Warriors 23 - 28 Cardiff Blues - [Sunday Herald]
Like Glasgow they came to the game with only one win under their belts, and unlike Glasgow’s demolition of Munster, theirs had been a scruffy one over Llanelli Scarlets and Dai Young, their coach, is already feeling the pressure mounting.
Glasgow, in contrast, were still on a high after smashing Munster at the same ground a week earlier and had set themselves the task of building on the confidence that game had generated and they set off in a manner that suggested they would achieve their goal.
Minutes later Glasgow increased their lead with Barclay again driving and Sam Pinder, the scrum-half, using the quick ball to break to the open side and lay on a try for Calvin Howarth, the full-back, cutting across on the scissors move.

 GLOUCESTERSHIRE WARRIORS RLFC   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
The Gloucestershire Warriors travel to the fringes of Birmingham to meet the Worcester Saints at their new home at Kings Norton RFC this Saturday (ko 2.30pm) looking to set a new club record of six consecutive league wins.
The Warriors head the South West Division of the TOTALrl.com Rugby League Conference with maximum points from their five matches so far and will be confident of a win as the Saints have won just once this season and shipped 13 tries in a 72-20 defeat at home to Somerset Vikings last weekend.
However, the Warriors are also likely to be missing a number of influential players themselves as Jimmy Armstrong’s shoulder may not be risked with some important matches for the club coming up while props Steve Penfold and Leo Halavatau will be absent with hamstring and calf injuries respectively.

 Newcastle 32 - 11 Glasgow - [Sunday Herald]
It would be pushing it to say that Glasgow Warriors were dealt a rugby lesson, but for too much of this game they were trailing far in the wake of the English side.
Still, it was some credit to Glasgow that 26 minutes had passed before Newcastle crossed for their first try, although they had been riding their luck for at least some of that time.
An element of desperation had been evident in the Glasgow defence before the ball was whipped across the line to Tom May on the right wing, but by the time it got there Glasgow had simply run out of tacklers.

 Celtic League : Mather happy with Glasgow life   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
Glasgow have had a pretty unsatisfactory season so far - they currently lie 7th in the league and lost all four European Cup pool games.
But Mather is all too aware of where the problems lie, ‘We don’t have a big squad so when we do suffer a number of injuries we don’t necessarily have the quality of depth.
With thoughts turning to where Mather sees his playing career drawing to a close the 32 year old, who first settled in the UK from New Zealand in 1994, is clear where he’d like his future beyond Glasgow to lie.

For all that their preparation was disrupted by the weather, the contrast between this performance and their last derby was such that Glasgow's players must be asked serious questions about whether they let themselves get distracted over Christmas while the Reivers negotiated the stiffer two-match schedule.
Steve Bates, the home team's coach, readily acknowledged that, since he had never intended other than to give his players a light week's training after their trip to Murrayfield, the snowfall had probably worked to their advantage.
While Simon Danielli scored their first try which sent them on their way and Nikki Walker's run, which left the Warriors defence spreadeagled, set up the clincher for Steve Scott, this win was ground out by the doggedness of their pack, with Chris Cusiter snapping at their heels.
