Rugby Legends with Arthur Dickins

Rugby Legends with Arthur Dickins
Podcast Description
Welcome to Rugby Legends – the podcast that brings you insight and advice from international players and coaches for young rugby players who are keen to learn and get better. I’m Arthur Dickins, and in each episode I sit down with amazing current and former stars of rugby to hear about their journey from first picking up a rugby ball to playing and coaching at the highest level.
I get to ask them the kinds of questions that my fellow age-grade rugby players (and their coaches!) want to ask, such as:
What made you pick rugby over other sports?
How did you arrive in your position? How did you know you were good enough to go professional?
What’s the best advice you received from a coach? How do you deal with nerves before a big game?
How do you bounce back from a bad game?
And lots more!
If you are a young player such as me, a coach of young players, or you simply love rugby, I think you’ll really enjoy hearing the wisdom, knowledge and experience shared by these inspiring legends of the game.

David Flatman isn’t your average rugby legend. He’s honest, funny, and absolutely packed with stories from his playing days and beyond. In this episode, he breaks down the reality of pro rugby—injuries, team dynamics, and the mental grind most fans never get to see.
From being forced into a position he didn’t choose, to handling heartbreaks like missing out on World Cup squads, Flatman’s story shows the raw side of rugby. But it’s not all heavy—he brings his signature humour and straight talk to every story, making this one of the most entertaining Rugby Legends episodes yet.
He shares powerful moments with his heroes like Jason Leonard and Phil Vickery, what it felt like to wear the England jersey, and why he still can’t forget the toughest day of his career. If you’ve ever wondered what it really takes to survive in elite sport—this is your episode.
