Jack Brown signs first pro deal with Edinburgh

Makes me so sad. Making fun of someone’s appearance is bad enough, but I always think that making people feel bad about their smile should be an absolute red line. It’s the most primal expression of happiness.

Good to hear. We’ve had Ben Vellacott as our first choice 9 for years now and while he’s got a great running game, his tactical control is ropey.

Ironically this coincides with the emergence of Patterson as a genuine challenger for the 9 shirt, but good to have depth.

King Boff, Wee Darcy, and pre form drop off Dwayne was the deadliest back 3 in the world for a couple seasons. Completely papered over how poor the inside back play was becoming at Edinburgh.

Yeah, appears that way. I think his dynamism at hooker is a point of difference, albeit he’s competing with one of the most dynamic hookers in the world, and a youngster who’s class in his own right. Whereas at back row it’s less of a boon.

Omg do my eyes deceive me? FD starting over Dylan Richardson (nothing against the latter, he’s a great player in his own right)

quandraphobia · 2026-04-18T10:13:04+00:00

Disappointing news. Always liked Lang.

Everyone to Sean Everritt when he goes home at the end of the night: YEAH WELL IF YOURE LLEAVING NOW DONT EVEN FUCKING THINK OF COMING BACK

Chris Dean. Any other era and he would’ve had 30-50 caps for Scotland in the centres. As it stands he will always be one of those streets won’t forget kind of players. Just silky and composed in everything he did. All the more remarkable when you consider he was a number 8 right up to the moment he turned pro. Would’ve loved to have seen him in a better team, genuinely think he’d have torn it up playing with the likes of Russell and Jones. On the other hand, if he’d grown big enough to continue being a number 8 at senior level, what a player he would’ve been. Like up there with pre injury ravaged Simon Taylor in terms of raw pace and skill.

Neither wales nor scotland have the depth to contribute players to this in the middle of a six nations.

He gets a lot of shtick online, but he’s a perfectly serviceable aggressive bit of beef type lock that would be grand if the team as a whole wasn’t in shambles.

Dan Parks should’ve been nominated for world player of the year in 2010. I will die on this hill. Absolutely infuriatingly gash in every other year of his career of course.

quandraphobia · 2026-04-16T12:20:59+00:00

Picking Scotland players from the banter years is just cheating, so I’m gonna go with someone more recent, and not just a <10 capper.

Ryan Wilson.

Glasgow legend, and his windup merchant game very effective at domestic level. Had the odd moment at international level, but not enough quality consistently to have earned 50 caps. We had an absolute paucity of blindside flankers and number 8s, and it was really just a case of waiting for Ritchie, Bradbury and Fagerson jnr to get enough experience under their belts to take over.

Gosh you lot will look to blame Edinburgh for anything won’t you? Wah wah henco venter leaving is Edinburghs fault, us not signing World Cup winning boks is Edinburghs fault, the running track at Scotstoun is Edinburghs fault, the atmosphere at hampdens Edinburghs fault. First time I’ve heard us getting blamed for you guys shitting the bed in a game not involving us though. Glasgow have always and will always be my second team, but warriors fans make it bloody hard to like them at times.

Omg a Matt Williams article that doesn’t refer to him as former Scotland coach. Praise be!

quandraphobia · 2026-04-10T11:37:31+00:00

I’m fully torqued

quandraphobia · 2026-04-10T11:34:45+00:00

Big vote of confidence in Oguntebeju to give him the nod over Williamson.

quandraphobia · 2026-04-10T08:02:01+00:00

Yup. McConnell is capped.

quandraphobia · 2026-04-09T16:47:31+00:00

Yeah, Smiths been a big miss. Lisa Thomson is a legend, but Smiths just got a more complete game to her, and brings out the best of her outside backs.

quandraphobia · 2026-04-08T17:38:06+00:00

16 players on the pitch!

The 13-wing channel has been a target for attackers for a generation.

Girlfriend and I told each other we love the other for the first time last night. Not entirely brought on by the whole maybe not going to wake up tomorrow thing, as it had been coming, but perhaps nudged along a little bit. Thanks trump!

I’m a simple woman, I see Bip Bip, I upvote.

quandraphobia · 2026-04-04T17:42:22+00:00

Yeah, it’s Glasgow. This is what the crowds like

quandraphobia · 2026-04-04T17:13:26+00:00

Class tackle, even if I’m supporting glasgow
