I've just come across Gen HR McMaster's Battlegrounds podcast and he has a very interesting interview with Ritchie McCaw. I've heard Gen McMaster talk about his love of the game before so its an informed discussion:

Quote

In this episode of Battlegrounds, H.R. McMaster and Richie McCaw discuss the state of rugby and the lessons the sport offers for developing leaders, fostering teamwork, strengthening communities, and building a better future,

There's also a nice potted history of the sport including and interesting, but sad, stat of how many rugby players dies in WW1.

Its on all the platforms including here: https://open.spotify.com/episode/4JniOGAEJgv52Iu1C4cdI7
