In an interview with The Scotsman, Edinburgh flanker Ross Rennie talks about his return to full fitness after a troublesome knee injury.
"Ross Rennie can easily recall watching the Scotland squad prepare for the last World Cup while conducting pre-season training with Edinburgh, and so, on a sunny day when news centred on Hugo Southwell's unfortunate injury, he was happy to report that he was in terrific health himself.
"That, in itself, is a success story for the 25-year-old openside flanker, who endured a harrowing early part to his professional career. A prodigious talent that many astute judges reckoned would hold down the Scotland No 7 shirt for years before the emergence of John Barclay, a complicated knee injury suffered against Irish opposition forced him on to the sidelines for the best part of 18 months and has left him needing good physio management to get through the rigours of a full week of training at pro level, never mind in the Test arena."
