Today we get a unique look into rugby through the eyes of a strength coach and a professional player. Tex talks with Kev Toonen and Owen Franks about the sport’s transition through COVID and the challenges that presented. This amazing discussion gives us insight into the culture, leadership, training, and growth of a team from both player and coach perspectives. And, never underestimate the power of shittalking. With all the cultural shifts occurring, may the ribbing between players never cease.   

Coach Kev Toonen and rugby great, Owen Franks join the show to discuss the resilience of the sport during the recent lockdown. It’s a testament to the dedicated players and supporters that teams made massive sacrifices to keep the sport alive. Maybe it’s also why Kev Toonen says that his team has such high standards for character. Teams win when they play with teammates they respect.
