Chris Robshaw: Resilience, World Cup heartache and Six Nations stand-offs

What happens when a World Cup dream comes crashing down around you? In the very first episode of Captains, Sam Warburton is joined by former England rugby union captain Chris Robshaw to reflect on the difficult period that followed England's shock exit from the 2015 Rugby World Cup and the important lessons that enabled Chris to return to the highest level.   They relive the titanic battles between Wales and England on the pitch and discuss dealing with the pressure and criticism that comes your way when you wear the armband.   In life, we often learn more from the lows than we do from the highs and Chris's story is one of resilience.   Get in touch with Sam by emailing captains@crowdnetwork.co.uk or by searching for #captainspod. Subscribe to Crowd Sports+ on Apple to join The Huddle and receive bonus content as well as ad-free episodes.

Om Podcasten

England's most capped men love rugby. Ben Youngs is a scrum-half so he’s spent most of his 127 games chatting away to team-mates, opposition and referees. His mate Dan Cole is still in the England squad, and has cult hero status thanks to his no-nonsense approach to most of life’s events. They’ve spent 20 years together at Leicester Tigers, toured together for the British and Irish Lions, and now podcast together every week. They'll bring you their ultimate guide to rugby's biggest games, give you a behind the scenes tour of Twickenham, and tell you what really happens inside an England camp. They’ll also have guests, and they will be some of the biggest names in rugby.
