Huw Jones made his first appearance since the Lions tour in the summer and looked every inch one of the top centres in the world. Jones had a hand in three of the four first-half tries for Glasgow, including scoring one himself, and his presence seemed to inspire his old buddy Sione Tuipulotu to find his best stuff too. Scotland will need them both at the top of their game for the Six Nations, as Glasgow will if they are to go deep in this Champions Cup.
Jones back with a bang
Huw Jones made his first appearance since the Lions tour in the summer and looked every inch one of the top centres in the world.
An early break set the scene for what was to come, and every time he got the ball he looked like something was going to happen.

Destructive Demspey leads the charge
Jack Dempsey has spoken of his frustrations at missing so much of last season through injury and he seems determined to make up for lost time.
The big number eight's aggression epitomised his side's performance. He carried 14 times for 56 metres and gave his side crucial forward momentum.
That was especially important in those 10 minutes when Warriors were down to 13. Keeping hold of possession was critical and Dempsey was always a willing carrier.
Lancaster stakes his claim
With Adam Hastings set to depart Scotstoun in the summer, the big question is who will fill the 10 jersey next season. Dan Lancaster showed he is a viable option with his performance against Clermont.
There are still some rough edges to his game needing ironed out, but Lancaster showed he can get Glasgow's killer backline firing.
He looked at home in such a big game and he will hope for more time in the saddle between now and the end of the season to prove that Hastings' replacement is already in the building.
