23 Jul 2020

On this week's Official Scottish Rugby Podcast we are joined by Scotland international Sam Skinner.

The 25-year-old joins former Scotland international Chris Paterson, current Scotland captain Rachel Malcolm and Scottish Rugby’s Jamie McMillan for an in-depth chat.

Paterson returns to the podcast this week after two months away, while Al Kellock is on holiday.

Exeter Chiefs star, Skinner talks about what it was like making his Scotland debut back in 2018 and his experiences of playing at BT Murrayfield.

As well as reflecting on the disappointment of missing out on the 2019 Rugby World Cup due to injury, Skinner talks about how happy he is in Devon amongst a growing contingent of Scotland players, including Stuart Hogg, Jonny Gray and Sam Hidalgo-Clyne.
