Episode 43 - Michael Lynagh

1991 Rugby World Cup-winning vice-captain, World Rugby Hall of Fame inductee and one of the greatest fly-halves of all time — who scored 911 points across 72 international appearances for Australia, retiring in 1995 as the world points scoring record holder — Michael Lynagh joins me on Seb Talks Sports! Michael describes making his national team debut against Fiji at just 20 years of age, lifting the Webb Ellis Cup as vice-captain of the 1991 Rugby World Cup-winning Wallabies side that defeated hosts England in the final, hitting THAT game-clinching drop goal for Saracens against the Newcastle Falcons at Vicarage Road during the 1997-98 season title race, suffering a life-threatening stroke in 2012 and his recovery from the condition, his sons’ achievements both on and off the rugby pitch to date, Australia’s chances at next autumn’s Rugby World Cup in France, and much more!
