Stuart Cameron

Hello and welcome to the Offside Line Clubhouse podcast.

I'm Stuart Cameron, this week joined as usual by David Barnes and Robin Purdie as we go over last week's club rugby and take a peep at this weekend's matches in the top three divisions of club rugby in Scotland before the three-week break when the Inter-District Championship comes into play and of course three big internationals involving Scotland.

will take place, but we're interested, in the club scene, on this particular podcast, and last week, a changing of the guard, at the top, let's tell you, the results, in the premiership, Ayr 29, Currie 7, GHA 17, Glasgow Hawks 7, Hoik 32, Watsonians 24, Heriots 47, Enbrachies 0, and Kelso 39, Melrose 22, so Ayr, go back to the top, 35 points, Melrose 32, Heriots 47, So Ayr back at the top with a bonus point win against Curry.

Kelso beating Melrose 39-22.

And Grant said, well, you sure about that and he did and so he played the first half so big credit to him the air scrum hammered they just pulverised Curry big forwards the big guys Robbie Orr Jamie Shedden running hard at them Bobby Beattie got a couple and yeah it was air at their irresistible best

we don't really get the opportunity to say statement win for air all that often because they're almost expected to beat everybody but to me that looks a real statement win because you're right David there's been certainly in the comments sections there's been bits and bobs as you say I've never really subscribed to that, to be honest.

And we seen the little snippet Stuart in the drive back from Kelso just on the phone there on the stream.

And yeah, as you say, David, it looked to me like it was a bullying job.

Hello and welcome to the Offside Line Clubhouse podcast.

I'm Stuart Cameron.

This week it's the return of Robin Purdie and he's joining David Barnes and myself to go over last week's club rugby and look forward to what's in store this Saturday.

So Robin, was it a rugby-free afternoon for you last Saturday or did you get your fix somewhere?

Are you allowed to say GHA are struggling now? Two from seven, is that struggling territory? But, no, I think most of, well, the results last week would...

you know, go by the, go as predicted.

And just something you touched upon, Stuart, I was actually going to say that myself.

I certainly think this weekend, if Kelso don't win this weekend, then there's the split.

Hello and welcome to the Offside Line Clubhouse podcast.

I'm Stuart Cameron, and this week with Robin Purdy away, David Barnes and I have been joined by Ian Hurd, former Scottish referee and coach, and with very little rugby last weekend because of the welfare break, not too much to look back on, but there was a Border League fixture at Mansfield Park, which produced 12 tries, 10 going to Hawick, 2 to Jed Forrester, ended 58-14.

In the three women's matches, which were played...

Corstorphine got off the bottom with their first win that was against Geary by 32-29 while Watsonians took the scalp of bigger 32-17 and Hillhead Jordan Hill remain unbeaten with a 48-19 victory over Carthage Queen's Park and with Sterling's game at Heriot's postponed it means Hillhead Jordan Hill are top of the table so David and Ian welcome to the podcast not too much to talk about from last week in Club Lancer how did you get your rugby fix?

That was a whole week ago Stuart I'm going to have to remember I actually took a week off Going to live games Although I did keep an eye on Edinburgh and Glasgow Going top and second top of the URC Which is quite exciting stuff I was a part timer I didn't actually go to any live games I'm afraid

I actually watched the referee at Selkirk Youth Club in Kelso, Quinns.

It was a 31-28 cracker.

We have training available for free that aims to upskill all of us, the nation, to have those all-important conversations.

The Reverend Stuart Cameron is with us from Wesley Mission.

He's the CEO of Wesley Mission.

Reverend Cameron, good afternoon.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Thanks so much, Mark.

Reverend Stuart Cameron from Wesley Mission, the CEO there.

So free half or full day Wesley Life Force training aims to upskill the nation to have those conversations with someone struggling with suicidal thoughts that two-thirds of us are not comfortable enough to take.

Hello, and welcome to the Offsideline Clubhouse podcast.

I'm Stuart Cameron, and this week David Barnes and Robin Purdie with me as always.

Of course, no rugby tomorrow in the top three divisions of Scottish club rugby.

We've been joined by our special guest, Bob McKillop, to talk about his excellent start to the season at Stirling County, but also about the upcoming Inter-District Championship and Scottish club international match against Ireland, which is taking place in February.
