The first win of the Kellock era. Big Al, Justin Va’a and Andy Newman were in amongst everything and set the standards for the young lads. Glasgow pack was no longer a soft touch but a niggly nightmare to play against!

Stevie Swindall had a great game that night, IIRC ??

#OnThisDay in 2009 – the one and only Bernardo Stortoni made the first of a run of 3⃣6⃣ consecutive starts for the club, the third-longest streak in Glasgow Warriors history.
Stortoni himself holds the record, with 43 starts in a row for the club!#AlwaysAWarrior
