Edinburgh centre Mark Bennett makes his 100th club appearance this evening and head coach Sean Everitt believes it is great for fellow midfielder Matt Currie to learn from someone of his experience.
“Matt and [Mark] played really well together - unfortunately Benzo got injured against Gloucester and struggled with that. But he is back now. He had played really well up until then.
“Matt has been our stalwart in midfield although he’s young. He’s kept his position every time he’s been available for selection. It’s great that Matt can play next to a guy like Mark Bennett, who is playing his 100th game.
"Matt is a keen learner, and players get better when they’re playing against senior people, and obviously they learn a lot from the players that they’re playing with."
Bennett also singled team-mate Matt Currie out for praise, adding: "Matt's a quality operator. He's a big man. He does the physical stuff really well and he's a really hard worker. His engine is impressive.
"In the last six months you've just seen him grow in confidence and he's just going to keep getting better and better, and it has really been a fight for my spot."
