David Flatman: Rugby Heroes and Hard Hits

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.
