The Sports Agents

Do winning teams need to be a bit "toxic"?

Listen on

Episode notes

England rugby centurion Danny Care, who won three Six Nations and two Premiership titles, joins Gabby and Mark on the podcast today...

"A dictator who ruled by fear" - that's how Care describes ex-England manager Eddie Jones. Hyper-successful sporting environments can be toxic. But is that the price you pay to win? Is that healthy? And does it give one person too much power to define careers and lives?

Care also spills some of his rugby stories too - what tattoo do you think he got in Vegas with his England team mates? We find out.

And was that Noel Gallagher on Man City's Champions League commentary?!
