Lauryn Louise Davey

It’s amazing to hear about the lack of funding, having to work 4 part time roles, and try to become a doctor, as well as dreaming of the Commonwealth Games 2026, and the next Olympics! We also chat about being vegan, dating, and Instagram DM’s in 2023.

Nick De Luca

43 caps for Scotland, & played in some great club games, and yet it was fascinating to hear that he doesn’t always look back on his career with the fondest of memories or a focus on the positives. Philosophical, insightful and a thought provoking conversation about Rugby and Mental health.

Chris Cooke

We chatted about leaving South Africa, grafting for a spot at Glamorgan, and playing the different formats, including franchise cricket. Plenty of highs and some lows too, we are both in agreement from different sides of the coin, that Glamorgan are not a million miles away form picking up silverware in every format!

Gwen Crabb

Gwen has a drive and determination to succeed, and absolutely believes in her own abilities. Her outlook is class, and it’s proving a good navigation for her – 29 cap’s for Wales Women, and she’d have had more if it wasn’t for some pretty bad injuries. She’s on the rehab train now, after almost back to back breaks/tears, and yet it’s not holding her back!

Steff Hughes

Fresh off his first season at the Dragons, it was interesting to hear his story so far. Plenty of ups and downs, and that’s just the last few years since c*vid. A shift at the Scarlets, and now enjoying the Dragons and what they’re creating!

Harri Morgan

Fresh off his first 10:31 challenge this morning, Harri came over after for a chat. It’s only been 10 or so days since he announced he would be stepping back from rugby to protect his mental health, and the outcome has been so positive for him.

There are themes of suicide, depression, mental health and anxiety throughout this Podcast.

Richard ‘Baz’ Barrington

Great catching up with someone who’s done it all in the club game. 4 Prem titles, 3 European cups, and a whole lot of songs in the back catalogue #Remiiiiiix

Now plying his trade and going well in ProD2 with Agen, he’s loving his rugby, and life. Fingers crossed they continue to go well, and see them go up to the Top14!

Simon Muderack

After a mental few months in Welsh Rugby, it was an interesting chat with the Scarlets Regional boss. He lifts the lid on the last few weeks and talks about what they need for the future, for both the Scarlets, and the WRU…

Jamie Jones-Buchanan Pt2

We tried to chat Rugby League, but like the first pod we did, the convo went off on a tangent again, albeit relevant in today’s society. Rugby League or not, he’s just a bloody good bloke!

Ep155

Casey Laulala

A quality career in Super Rugby, playing for the All Blacks, and then gracing Cardiff, Munster and Paris with Racing 92. Plenty of wins, a few lows, and carving a career now in Real Estate too.

Ep154

Ep154

Will Skelton

Great to catch up with Skelt’s after La Rochelle’s recent success. Pretty much everywhere he goes, cups follow! Interesting to hear him talk about growing up in NZ and Australia, and his journey across the northern hemisphere too

Ep153

Ep153

Sean Long

Sean has won it all on the pitch, and done it all off the pitch. If you know Rugby League, you’ll know Longy. Since retiring he’s been earning his trade as a No2, but now has the Head Coach job at Featherstone. St Helens Legend. GB and England. The wildest of highs and some serious lows.

Ep152

Ep152

Sean Maitland

Fresh off Scotland winning another game vs England Rugby, I caught up with Sean who was back at the team hotel. Class win for them, and great to chat about all things Scotland, Lions, & the Baa Baa’s. On the club stage he has won it all with Saracens, London Irish, Glasgow and in NZ with Canterbury and the Crusaders.

Matt Le Tissier

It’s not everyday you sit down with one of the best players to grace the Premier League. Whilst never properly getting his opportunities for England, he was the first midfielder to enter the Premier League 100 Club, and was an anomaly in being a 1 club man at Southampton.

Jamie Jones-Buchanan

What a bloke. We spoke a lot about what he is up to since hanging up the boots. His purpose post playing. His vision, values and morals. They type of blokes he’s built a career around, and what they have taught him over the years.
