S2 - E10: Robbie Deans talks Cricket & Rugby

A special episode as I am joined on the pod by current Panasonic Wild Knights Head of Rugby, Robbie Deans.  In this chat Robbie and I discuss all sorts, starting off with his upbringing in rural Canterbury and the importance that gave to community sport, being part of something bigger than yourself and the value of being in a team environment, all the way through to his time with the Wallabies, why he took that role and what he learnt by doing it.  Robbie also shares some incredible insights into how he as become one of the most successful rugby coaches of the modern era. He talks about the importance of players owning their own circumstances, how the brain is the most important muscle for any sportsperson as well as the importance of failure in ones development.  This was a really special chat, please do share it around on social media as I feel there is a lot here that people can learn from.  If you have time please give a rating or even write a review on wherever you get your podcasts, and of course you can follow the show on the instagram page. Thanks to BRB Munde for the musical accompaniment, and to Nick McCorriston for his help with production.
