Match-day Squad<br />

Kyle Steyn<br />

Lewis Bean<br />

Second-row<br />

DOB: 12/02/1992<br />

POB: Beverley, England<br />

Having missed the majority of the 2020/21 campaign<br />

due to an injury sustained in pre-season training, Kyle<br />

Steyn roared back onto the scene in the 2021 Rainbow<br />

Cup, showing exactly why he’s so highly rated by the<br />

coaching team for both club and country. The winger/<br />

centre beat more defenders (13) than any other<br />

<strong>Glasgow</strong> player as well as crossing for tries in three<br />

successive matches to close out the season, and will<br />

surely have his eye on adding to his solitary Scotland<br />

cap over the course of the 2021/22 season.<br />

Duncan Weir<br />

A fan favourite during his first spell at Scotstoun,<br />

Duncan Weir returned to his first professional club<br />

in the summer of 2021 five years after moving away<br />

from the Warriors. Deadly accurate with the boot,<br />

the fly-half was consistently amongst the English<br />

Premiership’s top points-scorers during his time<br />

at Worcester Warriors, and has already shown<br />

his international class during <strong>Glasgow</strong>’s two preseason<br />

fixtures.<br />

Rory Darge<br />

Openside flanker Darge made the switch along the M8<br />

to Scotstoun ahead of the 2021 Rainbow Cup, having<br />

initially made his professional debut with Edinburgh.<br />

The former Scotland U20 star subsequently turned in a<br />

series of displays that had pundits and supporters alike<br />

purring with approval, with his form earning him a first<br />

senior Scotland call-up in the summer of 2021 – whilst<br />

the tour was unfortunately cancelled due to COVID-19<br />

protocols, few would bet against Darge picking up a<br />

senior cap soon.<br />
