Sean Lineen said of former Ayr and West hooker: "I've been very impressed with Pat's attitude.
"He's had to be patient because there have been parts of his game he needed to work on.
"But he's turning into a real modern-day hooker with good pace and strength."
Sean has also been impressed with the way in which Murchie has settled into life with the Warriors since joining from London Welsh in 2009.
"Pete is a brave player," he continued. "He's committed to the Glasgow culture and what we're trying to develop here.
"He's improved physically over the last couple of years and has a fantastic attitude."
