Warriors A lose out to Edinburgh

Angus Fraser scored both Glasgow Waarriors
Glasgow Warriors A went down to a 29-12 defeat to their Edinburgh counterparts at Scotstoun this afternoon.

Hooker Angus Fraser scored both Glasgow tries with Richie Simpson converting the first.

Harri Morris, Lewis Wells, Fin Thomson, Charlie Shiel and Nairn Moncrieff.

Ben Healy added two conversions.

The coaches of Edinburgh and Glasgow Warriors 'A' teams insisted there was plenty to take from this afternoon's behind-closed-doors match at Scotstoun.

Glasgow A coach Shade Munro said the young Warriors side will take a lot from the game.

Speaking to Scotland Rugby News, Munro said: "We get a huge amount from that.

"Those sorts of games, and that sort of level of team Edinburgh had there, is a really good learning curve.

"For someone like Dan Halkon, who was calling the line-outs there, that is great for an 18-year-old. He made mistakes and he can see the consequences of not doing it right,

"Ally Miller and Jack Mann would have been playing, but Jack hurt his back during the week and Ally's wife gave birth, so they both dropped out last minute, which meant we didn't really have back-five cover, and that added to the pressure for Dan, and it was a really good experience.

"He played 80 minutes in the second-row, in the second-row with James Pow from Stirling County, and he loved it as well, so it is great to have this outlet for ambitious club players aspiring to play at that next level.

"And that is the same right across the board for all the young fellas like that.

"They can all play, they can all train really hard, but they need to play at this level to learn how important some aspects of the game are, and why they need to work to get better, which doesn't always get exposed at club level."
