Hask and Payno explore the making of Andy Farrell, a two-time Man of Steel forged in a tough Wigan environment. Sitting down to launch his new book, The Only Way I Know, he discusses how becoming a father to Owen at 16 cemented his focus, recalling the shock: "We were devastated, we felt we'd let our parents down." That early responsibility and drive became the blueprint for his world-class coaching success.
