Scotland prop Murray McCallum swaps Edinburgh for Glasgow
Glasgow have signed Scotland prop Murray McCallum from Edinburgh on a short-term deal.
The 25-year-old spent five years with Edinburgh and made 63 appearances, along with three Scotland caps.
“It’s exciting to get the chance to experience a new culture and experience a new way of playing,” he told the Warriors website.
“Glasgow play an exciting brand of rugby and I’m looking forward to immersing myself in the club, getting to know the boys, the coaches and fighting for a jersey amongst some very experienced players.
“In my time here I’m looking to continue to develop as a player and I’m eager to get some games under my belt and get back playing on the big stage – I’ve seen Scotstoun packed out and I can’t wait to experience it from the pitch.”

What a great read. Players mature at different stages and words that may inspire some are far too cutting for others. Good coaches are so important to the career of young players. The ability to get into a player's head is a gift. But in the wrong hands this can be a disaster. There is so much emotional stuff going on with young players that it takes a really good coach to bring the best from them and inspire them to be the best they can be playing rugby and importantly the best person they can be as a person.
Go to commentsInteresting read Nick, thanks. Is it a reality check for incomings and outgoings for the English clubs over money? a market correction? This is always a strange thing when it comes to what is still fundamentally recreation, a leisure pursuit. You could have the two divisions but the 2nd division will lose interest for the top flight of players. Maybe a random draw to create two pools that would lead to a play-off system? Have not thought it through but throwing it out there.
