LOOKING ahead to this weekend’s fixtures in the European Challenge Cup, it is clear that Scotland’s two fully professional sides face daunting challenges, but if they can both prevail the way is open for either Edinburgh Rugby or Glasgow Warriors to make the final in Marseille on May 27 – and that would be a fine achievement for Scottish rugby as it would be only the second time a Scottish side has accomplished that feat.
Warriors have the harder task as they must travel to Lyon for their match on Saturday evening, when they will already know their potential semi-final opponents as Edinburgh will be at home to Wasps on Saturday at 12.30pm. A double Scottish win will set up a mouth-watering semi-final between the Scottish teams, and I can only hope that happens as it will at least mean Scottish representation in the final.
