PODCAST: It is just a game - fact or fiction?

The @rugby365com team looks into the brittle state of mind some coaches get into when the pressure is on.

@King365ed and @LoffieEloff chat about some equivocal statements by @LionsRugbyCo coach @swysdb – who recently reiterated earlier claims that ‘results are not important’ and that it is ‘only a game’.

Eloff reminds us of a column he wrote for this website some time ago: ‘THE LONELY LIFE OF A RUGBY COACH‘.

They also bring you the views of @qantaswallabies and @BrumbiesRugby legend @pocockdavid – who announced his retirement from @SuperRugby this week.

Other interviews featured – as they shine the spotlight on the @TheSharksZA versus @Hurricanesrugby and @LionsRugbyCo versus @THESTORMERS games – include Lions fullback @andriesCoetzee and Hurricanes assistant coach Jason Holland.
