CLASSIC - Rugby gives you that camaraderie that lasts for years after the fact - Ben Mercer - #14

from Amateur Rugby Podcast

Now, Ben and I have never actually met, but he came with a very strong recommendation from a former team-mate of both of ours Geoff Griffiths. Ben has experienced all different sides of rugby over a lengthy playing career and his story is one that I really wanted to share with you. This interview was recorded in November of 2019 and we talked about life on the fringes of the professional game and Ben's varied experiences playing in different countries.
