Season 2: Episode 5 - Turkey Neck

Hello and welcome back to the Thistle Scottish Rugby Podcast, the only podcast that cares about Scottish rugby. Unfortunately David is away on a mystery holiday this week (clue is in the title) but Matt and Alan are here to take you through the past few weeks in Scottish rugby. This episode we are delighted to be joined by rugby journalist and editor of the Scrum magazine, Gary Heatly. After 13 years covering the game in Scotland, Gary gives us his view on the evolution of the club and professional games. We then digest Edinburgh and Glasgow's contrasting fortunes in the Pro 14, and assess which players have been impressing us and which have work to do. As always, subscribe to us via the iTunes podcast store or Acast podcast app, and make sure to follow us on Twitter @thistlerugbypod.
