Season 2 - Episode 18: Mark Bennett and Team Weird

Season 2, Ep. 18

Hello and welcome back to the Thistle Scottish Rugby Podcast, the only podcast that cares about Scottish rugby. This week we are joined by Edinburgh, Scotland and Olympic Silver Medallist Mark Bennett, fresh from his return from injury and his recent selection for the Scotland squad for the upcoming Six Nations. He tells us how it feels to be uprooted from the West Coast to Edinburgh, the impact Richard Cockerill has had on the club, and why Blair Kinghorn is a key part of 'Team Weird'. Disclaimer: we recorded a full podcast this week, but due to technical issues (i.e. none of us having a f***ing clue) it has been lost in the ether - we will be back next week to a full complement!
