The big man has been registered by @Harlequins ahead of next week's round of 16 clash against Leinster. Meanwhile, Seb Stephen added to @GlasgowWarriors squad. https://t.co/HpA0sL1Fjp

10 years on … 2015 @GlasgowWarriors Pro12 (as it was then) winners are presented to the Scotstoun crowd ahead of the 2025 vintage locking horns with @Munsterrugby. Franco Smith’s team will be hoping for a similar result to that famous night in Belfast. https://t.co/VUEuRq6Qyn
