À propos de ce contenu audio

Brought to you by Penguin.

The unfiltered truth about being a rugby player - from the horsey's mouth.

This book is not just about how I got back on my horse and went clippity-clop all the way to the World Cup final in Japan.

It's the story of how a fat kid who had to live up to the nickname Psycho grew up to play (and party) for over a decade with rugby's greatest pros.

From just about surviving the equivalent of 30 car crashes a game and crooning Adele for team spirit, to extensive field notes on the smell of the Scrum and the fine art of on-pitch relief. Then there's rugby's secret naked wrestling scene and how it was exposed.

In my world, you never know how the ball will bounce...

Loosehead is fantastic - Joe’s stories, anecdotes and impressions (!) are hilarious; his insights into the reality of professional rugby at the highest level, and notably the toll such pressure can take on family life and mental health, are fascinating. Definitely a must read for the modern rugby fan, or indeed anyone with a vague interest in professional sport.

A wonderfully funny, insightful and poignant read
