Today we're joined by Jake Polledri to discuss his long awaited return to professional rugby, after 2 years out with a potentially career ruining injury the Italian international is back and hungry to make an impact both domestically for Gloucester and The Azurri. We hear about how dark the last 2 years have been for him, including losing his brother to a sudden cardiac arrest on a night out, but also his excitement to finally be back out competing once more. He recalls crazy stories with Sergio Parisse, messy Italian initiations, destroying Ryan Wilson on debut, the Gloucester milk challenge, taking down Kieran Read, the challenges of Italian rugby, and Adam Hastings weird obsession with his sister. Plus the lads do a full breakdown on the craziness of the weekends premiership action including that ridiculous Harlequins game and of course reflect on the rugby championship - whereby they brand the New Zealand side as 'the worst to ever win the title' - loads of laughs, analysis and fun as always.
