The Catflap Chats Podcast

Having met Casey briefly over a beer approx. 10 years ago, it was great to catch up again, post Rugby. A quality career in Super Rugby, playing for the All Blacks, and then gracing Cardiff, Munster and Paris with Racing 92. Plenty of wins, a few lows, and carving a career now in Real Estate too.

One of Rugby's biggest men, but also one of the nicest. Great to catch up with Skelt's after LA Rochelle's recent success. Pretty much everywhere he goes, cups follow! Interesting to hear him talk about growing up in NZ and Australia, and his journey across the northern hemisphere too. I can see another successful year for La Rochelle, and Australia could do bits with Eddie at the helm!

What a guy, and what a career. Sean has won it all on the pitch, and done it all off the pitch. If you know Rugby League, you'll know Longy. Since retiring he's been earning his trade as a No2, but now has the Head Coach job at Featherstone. St Helens Legend. GB and England. The wildest of highs and some serious lows.

Fresh off Scotland winning another game vs England Rugby, I caught up with Sean who was back at the team hotel. Class win for them, and great to chat about all things Scotland, Lions, & the Baa Baa's. On the club stage he has won it all with Saracens, London Irish, Glasgow and in NZ with Canterbury and the Crusaders. There isn't much he hasn't done in rugby, and who knew so many famous players came from Tokoroa?!

It's not everyday you sit down with one of the best players to grace the Premier League. Whilst never properly getting his opportunities for England, he was the first midfielder to enter the Premier League 100 Club, and was an anomaly in being a 1 club man at Southampton.

We also chatted about some of todays issues in society, which Matt is all too happy to talk about. He's been seen a controversial figure over the last few years, but not everything he says is a 'conspiracy theory'

I cannot wait to do a part two with JJB! What a bloke. We spoke a lot about what he is up to since hanging up the boots. His purpose post playing. His vision, values and morals. They type of blokes he's built a career around, and what they have taught him over the years. I dare you not to be inspired to be a better person after this! Part 2 will be coming in the new year.

Class chat and followed a different format - Jason only retired in the summer and is now playing amateur rugby, but he had so many questions come up on our Instagram and twitter, we thought we would use those as the basis to form our convo. Insightful, no holds barred, both scathing and funny at times - Here's a lad that's seen it all in Welsh Club Rugby

What a mental chat with Dave. A career in the military. Over 10 tours in hostile environments, being shot at and blown up. Paratrooper and Special Forces. PTSD and Personality Disorder. Multiple suicide attempts. And now a new career, a family, and a life left behind.

It never fails to amaze me what people go through and come out the other side of. What a story. What a bloke. I can't wait to read his book when it comes out next year.

Loved this Ep - What a grounded and top bloke Will is. He didn't take the normal route in to football, instead grafting, going to Uni, working, and playing in the Welsh Prem. Then came that Wales vs England game. Now he's creating waves over at Newport County, and things look good for Will. Keep an eye on this lad if you love footy!

One of my heroes watching the 7s circuit over the years, with that huge beard and bald head - I was like DJ Forbes after 40 kebabs!

Fresh from the Hong Kong 7s, a great chat with someone who's genuinely won it all in their field, played with and against some of the greats, became an Olympian, and has transitioned over to the other side of sport.
