In the second episode of this series, we get invited to spend an afternoon at the plush environs of the Prince of Wales country club in Santiago, Chile. Here, some of the country’s national rugby players are putting kids through their paces and they themselves prepare for a first ever Rugby World Cup.
A snoop around a flea market, then, tips me off about a storied football club, Club Deportivo Palestino. We meet the fans and those running the club, which is a representation of Palestinian identity in Chile.
Finally, we meet Eddio Inostroza who was assistant to the enigmatic Mirko Josic, who came from Yugoslavia to lead the Colo-Colo club to their highest ever point as a club.
Also, there is the story of Puskas in Chile, the Battle of Macul and the story behind Chile’s two World Rugby hall of famers.
Before all that, there’s part two of the Patagonian hitchhiking journey, as Eoin tries to get himself to the town of Esquel.
