At 22 Dobie is the latest Scotland international to renew with Glasgow as the team gears up for the 2024/25 season and beyond, following confirmation that centre Huw Jones will be staying despite being the target of Montpellier. A product of Highland RFC and a former student at Merchiston Castle School, Dobie has been with the Warriors since leaving school.
In his tenure he has made 56 appearances showcasing his talent notably as the Land Rover Young Player of the Season in his first year. Dobie’s flexibility on the field has been a key asset for Coach Franco Smith’s squad evident in performances against Munster and Dragons.
His prowess at Glasgow earned him a call-up to the senior Scotland squad for the 2021 Six Nations and he debuted internationally against Tonga in the same year. Dobie also spent time with Bay of Plenty in New Zealand further honing his skills.
“I’m absolutely delighted to be staying” said Dobie. He highlighted the team’s potential and his personal growth from a young player to a professional at Glasgow. “The depth we have here shows that we’re in a really good place to push on and challenge for silverware” Dobie added emphasizing the collective ambition to bring trophies to Scotstoun.
Head coach Franco Smith praised Dobie’s contributions and potential.
“Jamie’s skillset and attributes are clear for all to see every time he runs out for this club” Smith remarked “And he is a young man full of potential to grow and develop on and off the field.

“He possesses a real ‘squad-first’ mentality and has a great drive to be the best version of himself, as well as developing into a leader within our group at Scotstoun.
“His work ethic and desire to succeed makes him a valuable asset to our squad and we are delighted that he has extended his contract with us.”

I’d say France was far more hard done by in the 2011 final than the All Blacks in this game. Joubert simply refused to call a penalty against the All Blacks in the last quarter even directing an All Black to drop a ball he picked up in an offside position rather than penalizing him. This article also totally discounts the efforts of PSTD. Ask Jordie how well he played. Or the backup flank who played hooker for the entire game. Siya was also a brilliant tackle by Richie from scoring a blinder. Pollard was also fantastic. Look I don’t like the boks style but the only thing more questionable than the content of this article is the timing of it. Get over it already

133 Go to commentsThis is the single worst piece of journalism I have ever seen since your last one. As a neutral, who really states that there should be an asterisk next to a win? You are an utter embarrassment to real AB fans, journalism and that joke of a house which pays you for this nonsense. Get a life, Ben.
133 Go to commentsGuys. Cancel the World Cup champions after this analysis. It changes everything. Ben knows. We’ll have to unengrave the Bokke off the trophy and hand it to the ABs, now that I’ve been enlightened about this illegitimate win. This needs to be done. Now!
133 Go to commentsBen is right here though, Springboks were woefully poor with the advantage they had throughout this game. The France match was heroic because that was an even contest this match had it taken place in Rugby Championship would have been an easy win for NZ. If anything this match should tell the Bok coaches that a lot of this team should be changed. They beat this same NZ team by record margin with the same circumstances but with a different core. They bring back the tried and tested guys and they nearly botch this game.

133 Go to commentsFirstly the foul on Bongi was a planned move just like the NZ master plan with Bryce Lawrence you kiwis are filthy fux perhaps try to play a cleaner game next time I doubt that’s possible tho but don’t worry world rugby is on yr side they trying to take away all the BOKS strengths to help all you weakling as Jeremy Clarkson would say LA OO ZA ERR..🤣
133 Go to commentsAbsolutely spot on Ben. I certainly wouldn't gloat over a win like that. Frustrating as it is it's done and dusted and history will forever show the result.

133 Go to commentsNo question they were the better team. But that is the beauty of sport isn’t it!

1 Go to commentsLet’s be honest. The draw and scheduling in the World Cup was a joke but South Africa found a way after having to go the hard (nearly impossible) way to the Cup Final via France and England. NZ had a hard game against France (lost) and had 5 weeks to prepare for the Quarter, 3 weeks knowing it was Ireland. NZ theerfore had to win one big game against an Irish team who played SA and then Scotland 7 days before. They won and it was de facto a semi final because they were playing a relatively weak Argentina team and it was a walk over. In the final a very rested NZ team was playing a very tired SA team and still lost. They couldn’t score more than 11 points. Put another way SA had to find a way to win while tired and they achieved that. NZ should thank their lucky stars that they fixed the scheduling in 2015 otherwise they would be dealing with a Bok treble.
