In this week's podcast - the only podcast to cover exclusively club rugby in Scotland - Stuart and Dale discuss last weekend's results and look ahead to Saturday's matches.
As always, we'd like to thank the following clubs for supporting the podcast - Hawick, Marr, Selkirk, Jedforest, Kelso, Glasgow Hawks, Ayr, Melrose, Gala, Peebles, Stirling County, Berwick and Stewart's-Melville. You can hear from these clubs in every episode of the podcast throughout the season.
In the Premiership, the big game is the battle at Malleny Park between Currie and table-toppers Hawick. The weather forecast is grim for the weekend with icy temperatures but we are hoping that most of the games will go ahead. This includes Kelso v Marr as the West Coast team hope to get back-to-back scalps in the Borders.
In National 1 Ayr are still unbeaten after 12 games and travel to Watsonians but our commentary game is one of the great Border derbies on the calendar between Gala and Melrose at Netherdale. Full commentary on that match will be on Rugby Radio at www.rugbyradio.co.uk on Saturday from 1.30pm.
National 2 this week sees the top four teams in the table playing against lowly opposition so unless there's a slip-up, Falkirk, Peebles, Lasswade and Newton Stewart should get through Saturday with good wins.
National 3 is where a tasty looking top of the table clash is happening between Preston Lodge and Orkney. Preston lodge's only defeat this season was by one single point at Orkney, who are unbeaten with a game in hand. Can PL get their revenge? We hear from both clubs in this edition ahead of the match.
On Rugby Radio this weekend at www.rugbyradio.co.uk you can hear three and a half hours of live rugby direct from Netherdale with full commentary of the National 1 fixture between Gala and Melrose, plus live score updates from across the country and interviews.
Don't forget to check out highlights on Sunday of Gala v Melrose and Kelso v Marr on Borders Rugby TV at www.bordersrugby.net and YouTube.
