Momentum is massive

Adam Ashe says momentum is with Glasgow
Adam Ashe says momentum will be a key factor ahead of Friday's PRO12 semi-final against Ulster at Scotstoun.

Warriors will face a much changed Ulster team with a number of internationalists returning for the visitors after being rested for last week's match.

Speaking in the Scotsman, Adam said: “I think momentum’s massive. To come back here for the second week on the trot will be tough for them. They got beat the week before and it’s never nice to go to a place where you’ve been beaten – your memories of getting beaten and all the rest of it can affect the way you perform as a team. Having to travel back and forth is not ideal for them either.

“Definitely having a home semi, with the way the crowd reacted for us last week is a bonus. I don’t think any team has won an away semi-final ever, so it’s massive for us and, if we can get the same again from them, that will be brilliant."

Last weekend, a bonus point was vital to Glasgow's hopes but tomorrow it will all be about just getting one more point than the men from Belfast.

Adam said: “In terms of points we just need to get as many points on the board as we can, whether it be kicking penalties or all the rest of it. So I think it will be a slightly different game this week – probably more like a Test match almost rather than a need-to-get-a-bonus-point-win sort of game.”
