Ben Mercer talks about his book "Fringes: Life on the Edge of Professional Rugby". This is a first hand account of what life is like in the lower reaches of professional sport in France - where your employment status is as precarious as your health and barely anyone will know your name.

Ben talks about contract negotiations, the testing behind doping and its faults, some of the issues he had to deal with while in France, and the professionalism (or lack thereof) of his fellow players.
