Hard work pays off for Glasgow Warriors

Sean Lineen had a special mention for Calum Forrester
Sean Lineen says passion and hard work helped the Warriors to a 22-19 win over Leinster on the opening weekend of the new Magners League campaign.

Sean Lineen told glasgowwarriors.org: “That was a very satisfying win. It’s great to see the passion the guys played with.

“We learnt some lessons against Wasps last weekend and we fixed them. A lot of hard work has gone into our defence by [defence coach] Gary Mercer.

“We maybe lacked a bit of confidence after we conceded the two tries, but we really came out in the second half. The crowd got behind us enormously, I mean they just grew and grew. What a noise.

Henry Pyrgos was outstanding. This is his first season of professional rugby, and after putting on a few kilos in pre-season, he did very well to last the full 80 minutes in such a hostile environment.

“Both fly halves were outstanding. Ruaridh Jackson kicked well and Duncan Weir came on as the pressure grew.

“I’ve also got to mention Calum Forrester. Calum is one of these guys who has been around for a while now. He always stands out and it’s great to see him doing so as part of a winning Glasgow team.”
