Description

Richard Hill – World Cup winner, England legend, and the ultimate back row warrior. In this episode of Rugby Legends, Richard opens up about his journey from multi-sport beginnings to becoming one of the most respected flankers in rugby history.

He shares the secret ingredients that shaped his success – from the friendships forged in the game, to the toughest coaches that pushed him further than he thought possible. Richard reveals what it really takes to master the flanker position, overcome devastating injuries, and keep performing at the very top level.

We hear about the matches that defined him, the teammates who inspired him, and the mantras that carried him through the hardest moments of his career. With honesty and wisdom, he reflects on what he misses most about rugby, how the game has evolved, and why resilience and adaptability matter as much as raw talent.

If you want to understand the mindset of a true England great – and what it takes to bounce back stronger every time life knocks you down – this is an episode you won’t want to miss.
