Rugby World Cup Special — Dylan Hartley, Ben Franks and Harry Mallinder

Dylan Hartley, Ben Franks and Harry Mallinder, The most capped hooker in England history, The Kiwi two-time World Cup winner and the U20s World Cup-winning captain

In a special live episode of the podcast, we’ve teamed up with esteemed Northampton shoemaker Church’s for a Rugby World Cup extravaganza. Editor Joseph Bullmore is joined by Dylan Hartley, the most capped hooker in England history; Ben Franks, the Kiwi two-time World Cup winner; and Harry Mallinder, the U20s World Cup-winning captain.

With plenty of audience participation from the gathered crowd, the Northampton Saints players spoke candidly about life at the top of the game, their first rugby memories, their greatest style disasters and their predictions for the 2019 World Cup.

Our thanks to Church’s for playing host
