Hello and welcome back to the Thistle, the original podcast that cares about Scottish rugby. The road to World Cup glory may have begun, but we never said it wasn't filled with the odd pothole. We run the rule over that fairly horrific evening in Nice and see if we can take any positives (Rory Hutchinson anyone)? At least we have the chance to make things right this weekend, against France, again, hmm.
