Your views on Edinburgh & Glasgow chances

We asked what you thought of the chances of Scotland's two United Rugby Championship sides as they go into the final regular fixtures of the season.

Glasgow Warriors need a bonus-point win over Zebre - combined with favours elsewhere - secure a top-two finish, while Edinburgh must defeat Benetton to join them in the quarter-finals.

Here's a selection of your thoughts:

Domenic: I can't put my finger on what's wrong with Edinburgh. For a team full of internationals, they constantly underperform. Yet, when players leave - e.g. Blair Kinghorn - they go on to become great players. Will Edinburgh make the last eight? No. Do they deserve to? No. Insipid performances at the Hive suggest they can't cut it with the big teams.

Stuart: Warriors should get five points on Friday and we will have to wait on other results. Should they play to their absolute best, the final is possible. But they must put the brain fades, handling errors and slow starts behind them.

Jim: Glasgow have done exceptionally well this season but unfortunately chose Saturday to put on their worst show so far. They should never have conceded so many points to 14 players. Hopefully they have got it out of their system, however, and the best form returns for the quarter-final and hopefully the semis.

Robert: Glasgow need a captain and leader on the pitch. An Alun Wyn Jones or Martin Johnson who can grab the team when things need to be changed and change them on the pitch and not wait for instructions to come down. Until this happens, they will lose games they should have won.
