Big disrespect to TTs sleeper build he has more muscle in one leg then Hawkins has in his whole body! Plus he doesn't even look like him, they just have long hair 😂
Fascinating stuff for all the fans who form superficial opinions of players, good or bad, without the first idea of the complex cocktail of physiology, genetics and psychology.
Fantastic episode. The sharing of understanding in this is superb. It’s clear that this guy is a top coach his ability to be clear and concise while taking both lenny and Coley with him is massive
That was a great chat! In South Africa we always refererred to players with farmer strength. The numbers in the gym aren't massive, but these players are animals on the field. I remember Schalk Burger once talking about his max bench press being 100kg, but he was a brilliant rugby player and a fearsome opponent.
So good! My favourite one so far and they are all great! My favourite thing to listen to/watch is how athletes train and prepare. Love hearing about players’ mentalities too.
I can not believe how compelling this episode was. I am very OCD and keep saying to people work, training to think ahead what if! What if! Also T2 was amazing the way he talks the volume and delivery draws you in. I loved EJ and hated how he was treated and how SB is being talked about but this shows what goes into getting a team ready to peak and how to Build through a tournament. JM discussion when you know how JM talked about being dropped and what he needed to do toget back in. Brilliant POD
i never thought the frontman for "The darkness" also had a deep understanding of the game, top chat. More people like this pls.

Have loved all the pods but this is the best one so far. Absolutely compelling listen.

brilliant pod and superb guest - many thanks
Such a deep and informative talk in this episode. Right at the start; that is why we cant simply pick an England squad based on premiership form.
Such a good episode, best one to date by far.
It's nice to see/hear some of the people who make it all work behind the scenes.
More like this pls 🙏
This is what podcasting should be like ❤

What a top bloke!
Cracking episode , really insightful, shame didn’t ask why Tom decided to move on and what the next chapter looks like 👍
Really incitfull and engaging. Great conversation. Listened twice now. Thanks
Great episode lads
very honest and interesting,although we don't all know everyone's nickname
Great episode lads, top bloke tom speaks so well.
Brilliant lads 💪
A real shame Tom was moved on at the end of the NZ series. England could do with his experience now.
@@06alepea1 agreed ones
Across as a brilliant coach mentor no / littler just focused on getting the best out of / for his athletes
I can’t believe I’m Welsh watching these pair and enjoying their personalities and content! RFU needs to do a better job of revealing personalities
