October 18, 2025Ospreys 17 - 42 Glasgow WarriorsUnited Rugby Championship match played at Brewery Field on Saturday October 18th 2025 | No comments
![]() Euan Ferrie went over for a try to round off an impressive performance Glasgow Warriors crossed for six tries in this evening's URC win over Ospreys at Brewery Field. Tries from Jamie Dobie, Kyle Steyn and Johnny Matthews, all converted by Adam Hastings gave Glasgow a 21-10 lead at the break. Ospreys briefly reduced the deficit after the interval but Dobie gave Warriors the bonus point when he went over for his second try. Further tries from Euan Ferrie and Macenzzie Duncan - with Hastings and Dan Lancaster adding the extras - gave Warriors a comfortable win. Ospreys had their moments but were starved of possession and struggled to deal with Glasgow's physicality. Reuben Morgan-Williams and Luke Morgan scored tries for Ospreys while Dan Edwards kicked seven points. The win means Glasgow rise to third in the URC table behind Stormers and Munster. Ospreys have made an encouraging start to the season and started brightly this evening when they were awarded a penalty try after their maul drove Glasgow back over their own line. Kyle Rowe was sent to the sin bin before the TMO intervened to point out an act of obstruction by Morgan Morse. As a result the try was disallowed and referee Andrea Piardi called Rowe back to the field as his yellow card was overturned. Glasgow claimed the opening try of the game with some nice play between Dobie and Steyn taking the vistors close to the Ospreys line. After a series of pick and go's scrum-half Dobie sneaked over for the try. Hastings added the extras. But the Ospreys hit back immediately with a driving lineout. Dewi Lake and Ben Warren made some strong carries before Morgan-Williams spotted a gap to dart over the line to score with Edwards adding the conversion. Despite the wet conditions Glasgow's handling was looking impressive as they went from side-to-side stretching the home defence before Steyn went over in the corner with Hastings adding a further two points. Edwards kicked a penalty for the Ospreys before Lake was sent to the sin bin for a high shot on Glasgow prop Murphy Walker. Glasgow took a 21-10 lead into the interval when Matthews went over from short-range off the back of a lineout for his trademark try. Ospreys made a quick start to the second period and shifted the ball wide with some nice hands from Edwards putting Morgan over at the corner on the left. Edwards converted but Glasgow soon extended their lead when sharp work from Dobie saw him go through a big gap in the Ospreys defensive line to score. Glasgow claimed a fifth try with some excellent handling from Alex Samuel and Sione Tuipulotu resulting in Ollie Smith putting Ferrie in at the far left-hand corner. In the closing minutes Alex Craig had a score disallowed but Glasgow were not to be denied a sixth try when Duncan touched down off the back of another driving maul. Speaking after the game, Franco Smith admitted to some nerves in the build-up to the game. but was ultimately very satisfied. "I was very nervous around this one, and I thought tonight the boys stepped up from an emotional and from a creativity point of view," Smith told Premier Sports. "We knew that it was going to be tough and the Ospreys didn't disappoint. They were really tough to break down and fortunately I think the try just before half-time [by Matthews] allowed us to come out of a different mindset."
