**How do you sum a game that on the stat sheet looks like absolute chaos? You find the pieces of surgical magic that have come straight from the training ground.** When you get 10 tries in 80 minutes you can make a few assumptions around defence and while the tackling stats weren’t anything you would weave into an iron curtain, there were some great examples of heads-up rugby and white-board wizardry. This game between the Cardiff Blues and Glasgow Warriors was a fixture between to sides who both play and train on artificial surfaces, so if anyone in the Guinness PRO14 knows how to make best use of a good grip on the turf – it’s these two. But back to the headline numbers for a minute. We saw a total of 68 defenders beaten and 35 clean breaks made – those are figures that spell out free-flowing rugby in anyone’s book. The game was also populated with the type of players you would expect to thrive in such a setting. As ever, Cardiff Blues were mobile and light on their feet with Kristian Dacey, Olly Robinson and Seb Davies in the pack that was backed up with electricity of Jarrod Evans, Owen Lane and Matthew Morgan in the backline. Warriors always arrive with a bit more beef in the forwards, but the backline was dripping with fast, high-skilled characters like Ali Price, Nick Grigg and Kyle Steyn while Peter Horne was pulling the strings at out-half.
