Competitions

Pre-season and friendlies

Glasgow Warriors announced on 23 June 2023 a pre-season friendly match with Zebre Parma in September. The 6pm kick off was chosen so as not to clash with the Scotland versus Romania match.[31] Zebre provided cap numbers with their player line-ups.

With 16 players at the World Cup, the Warriors fielded an experimental side with a host of academy players involved. In addition, the 22 year old scrum half Jamie Dobie was named as captain. The Warriors head coach Franco Smith explained:[32]

Tomorrow sees us take the next step in our pre-season preparations, as we take on a Zebre Parma team that will test us across the field. The players have worked hard since returning to Scotstoun, and everyone is looking forward to getting back out there.

We’re also pleased to give an opportunity to some of our academy players, who have earned their opportunity with their efforts in pre-season so far. The growth of our squad and Scottish rugby overall is a priority for us, so we’re excited to give these young players their chance.

It’s good to work with players we might not have the opportunity to work with so closely over the rest of the season. So it’s a huge opportunity to work with these young players, the next generation of Scottish players and Glasgow Warriors players, and expose them to our environment. We’re excited about getting back out there - the players more than I am. Everybody is ready for the next step.

[Jamie Dobie] leads more by example, which we always appreciate more than just someone leading by his voice. The leadership qualities that he’s presented over the last year have been extraordinary, so he’s been rewarded for his manner, the way he goes about his business, and influencing the players around him. Through his contribution he merits this chance - he’s definitely part of our leadership group going forward.

Franco Smith was happy with the run out for Glasgow Warriors. He was also pleased to see his son play well from the bench for Zebre.[33]

Kyle Rowe has shown tonight that there’s some class about him. I think he’s definitely going to be important for us. But all of these players are going to be important.

We’ll have this big group coming back from the World Cup who will need to be managed physically, emotionally and mentally. So to keep everybody at their best we’re going to have to look to our depth and that’s what we are working hard on at this stage.

It was fantastic to see [Franco Jnr.] and he did well. He can be happy with what he brought to it in the second half.

The away fixture to Cavan to play Ulster proved just too much for the young Warriors side. Franco Smith was nevertheless happy with what he saw from the players:[34]

I think without the ball we were really good. We probably made between 220 and 230 tackles which is what is necessary from a fitness perspective, from a character perspective, from a team-building perspective.

In that regard I’m really happy with the players attitude.

I’m obviously disappointed we didn’t get anything going in attack. I think Ulster deprived us well of ball at the breakdown specifically so there’s a lot of work to do but that’s in our DNA so I don’t have too much concern about that.

Look, again, there’s a young bunch of players, players that didn’t get the opportunity last season that have worked hard in preseason.

European Champions Cup

The format of the Champions Cup changed for the 2023–24 season. There is to be four pools of six teams. Each pool of six will have 2 URC sides, 2 French sides and 2 English sides. However, in the pool stage, no teams from the same league play one another. This meant that Glasgow Warriors will play only the French and English sides in their pool.[1]

The draw was announced on 21 June 2023. Glasgow Warriors are in Pool 3 along with Munster, Toulon, Bayonne, Exeter Chiefs and Northampton Saints.[39]
