The podcast returns with a bumper episode after our two summer specials. This week Cammy and John look at the current state of Gregor Townsend's World Cup training squad, chat to Illtud Daffyd about how France's preparations are going and we look back at Scotland's appearances at the 1991 World Cup semi final and the 2015 quarter final. One was not as close as people remember but which one? The other still hurts despite the passage of time...We also chat about our World Cup song and read out a message from someone very dear to our hearts, And in Hands In The Ruck we get stuck into the haters and ponder whether Will Greenwood doesn't know the laws of rugby or is just pretending not to know for clicks and internet traffic.Don't forget to visit the blog www.scottishrugbyblog.co.uk for more news and opinions as we approach the World Cup.
