Rugby journalist/author/columnist/presenter Jessica Hayden joins us to watch Spain take on the team she knows better than anyone: the Red Roses! We get Jess' backstory, including how she accidentally started her rugby career. We also discuss Gary Lineker's niece, sassy Spanish coaches and an England player who hunts burglars.

Thanks so much to Jess (@jesshaydenrugby on Instagram, @_JessHayden on Twitter) for joining us and sharing her knowledge. If you're interested in more of what you heard, please check out her work with Contested (@ContestedApp), and give her book "The Red Roses" a read - it's excellent and well worth your time.
