Rugby World Magazine’s One Game at a Time Podcast

Rugby World magazine has teamed up with broadcaster Sam Roberts to launch a new podcast entitled One Game at a Time.

In each episode of One Game at a Time, Roberts speaks to a high-profile player about a memorable match in their career, gaining insight into specific moments, the emotions involved and goings-on behind the scenes.

The one-on-one conversation also branches out to wider topics, including how players develop themselves and the mindset involved at the top level.

Gloucester legend James Simpson-Daniel joins Roberts to step back in time and recall his England debut against New Zealand – and a certain Jonah Lomu – in 2002. He also opens up on missing out on the RWC 2003 squad and coming to terms with an international career that didn’t flourish as he’d hoped.

As part of Rugby World magazine’s 60th anniversary celebrations, Gareth Edwards talks through the famous Baa-Baas v All Blacks game of 1973.

Other episodes feature Kat Merchant, Jimmy Gopperth, Schalk Brits, Ben Alexander, Chris Robshaw, Jordan Crane and Karl Dickson. So have a listen now.
