In this week's episode of the Science for Sport podcast, host Richard Graves is joined by Leicester Tigers' Head of Performance, Matt Parr, a former professional rugby player turned strength and conditioning expert with experience across both rugby union and league. Matt shares his fascinating journey from the pitch to the performance department, offering valuable insights drawn from his time at Leicester Tigers and Catalan Dragons. With a career that's spanned both codes of rugby, Matt dives into the key physical demands of each sport and how training must adapt to meet them. He also lifts the lid on what really goes into building strength, power, and robustness across a long and gruelling season. In this episode, you'll learn: * The real physical differences between rugby union and rugby league – and why it's not just “the same shaped ball” * How to build meaningful preseason plans that lay the foundation for success * Why strength underpins everything, and how it connects to power and injury prevention * The importance of athlete conversations over just relying on data * How Matt handles return-to-play protocols and balances performance with player wellbeing Whether you're a coach in pro sport or working at grassroots level, this conversation is packed with practical takeaways and thought-provoking reflections on what it really takes to keep athletes performing at their best.

In the last guest of our short series, inspired by the Rugby League World Cup, we're joined by the humble, hard-working and high-performing Sam Tomkins, the captain and talisman of England's men's team who are aiming to win the coveted trophy later this month. In Sam Walker's brilliant book, Captain Class, he identified that the best teams have great captains, those who play on the edge, make others better and step up at crucial moments. Sam is certainly a leader who does this and much more but, as he explained to us, this has not come easily. He was never identified as a great talent, having to pay to play at Wigan Warriors whilst holding down a full-time job as a green-keeper at a local golf course. Whilst he was there, he refused to compromise and kept his dream of representing his boyhood team alive. His willingness to do the work in the shadows, the hard, relentless grind in the toughest of sports distinguished him and prepared him for the moment when luck met opportunity and he got his shot. Sam was a central figure in Wigan's renaissance, winning Grand Finals and Challenge Cups before deciding to stretch his horizons and test himself in New Zealand. He returned to Wigan and led them to further glory before once again, being stepping outside his comfort zone by moving to France with Catalan Dragons. Sam's story is packed with incredible lessons, inspiring messages and insightful observations from his climb to the summit of world sport.

What hasn't this guy seen or done? Played with and against the best players the world had to offer. Won it all as a team and individually. One of the best Rugby League players England have produced, who did it his way.  I loved this one, and could still see a little spark in the belly when he was talking about facing those old teams. Would have loved to have played with him, and hated playing against him. Thank you Dragon Signs. Tiny Rebel and Healthy Hangout UK.

During the conversation we also talk about: What makes an effective leader. Overcoming difficult times through injury. Social media. The difference between being good at something and being great. Imposter syndrome. Addressing doubt. Handling pressure. Getting out of your comfort zone. What it was like being an international player at such a young age. How to be consistent. Advice he lives by. Enjoy.

Controversial cross-code star Israel Folau is on the verge of an NRL comeback.According to the Sydney Morning Herald, St George Illawarra have formally approached the NRL in the hope of signing the former Wallaby on a two-year deal.Although NRL boss Peter V'landys has previously said the door was shut to Folau, the NRL has indicated its intention to review the proposal before making a decision.When V'landys was appointed as chair of the commission, he said Folau's views didn't align with those of the game."The game is inclusive. Israel's comments are not inclusive," V'landys said at the time. "When I was a kid and kids used to get bashed up because they were different, I used to go and defend them. And a lot of them, it's because their role models or their peers made them that way."I have no tolerance for people that put other people's lives [at risk] or [commit] violence. It's a big statement to make. With due respect to Israel, what he says, young kids listen to. He is a role model. They act on it. And when you're a kid at school and you get bashed up because you're different, I don't think that's a good thing."But St George Illawarra chief executive Ryan Webb confirmed the club was in the process of luring Folau to the Dragons."We are always on the lookout for great players," Webb told the Sydney Herald. "We have enquired with the NRL about Israel and we will work with them to hopefully see him join us in 2021."We understand there will be a range of opinions in regards to this decision, but we believe he would be a good addition to our club."Earlier this year, Folau was linked with a move back to rugby union following his split with Australian Rugby in 2019 after he repeatedly posted what were perceived as homophobic religious memes to social media platforms.He was fired and then took Rugby Australia to court and settled on a multi-million dollar payout.Folau was set to finish his Catalan Dragons contract in the Super League this year but returned home after the birth of his first child.

Christophe Jouffret is Graeme Thompson's guest on episode 19 of ‘Talking European Rugby League'.

He also speaks about why believes he may have the most challenging job in world Rugby League with Catalan Dragons, and has spoken of the unflinching trust in his players that has come to shape his coaching philosophy and why he offered a chance to controversial signing Israel Folau amidst wide-spread condemnation and pressure to do the opposite. The compelling, frank and honest discussion is the latest episode of the Rugby League United podcast series from independent charity Rugby League Cares.

Rich Hunwicks Head of Performance with Catalan Dragons talks to us about how the Catalan players are training through lockdown, the issues with returning to play after COVID19, dealing with excessive travel plus tons more #Buildingmachines

As Israel Folau looks set to make his Rugby League debut for the Catalan Dragons, we hear from Keegan Hirst, who in 2015 became the first British pro player to come out as gay. The French side attracted widespread criticism for signing the player after he was sacked by Rugby Australia for a social media post saying hell awaited gay people. With no sign in sight to the end of Coronavirus, we take a look at the effect it’s had on the sporting calendar, where a number of events across multiple sports have been postponed. We meet two of six African American Women who represent the USA in the sevens version of the game… and will be doing so in Tokyo later this year.

Darren and Elly are joined by Alice Dearing who is aiming to be at Tokyo 2020 and become the first ever black female swimmer to represent Great Britain. Plus we hear from CEO of UK Sport Sally Munday on the current state of UK Athletics, after they announced an unprecedented review amid “major concerns”. And with Israel Folau set to make his debut for Catalan Dragons, Steve Brady of Catalan Media talks about the reception the controversial player has faced and the opposition received from fellow Super League clubs.

ARN’s Head of Sport Chris McHardy sits down with Danny Care at the magnificent Jumeirah at Saadiyat Island Resort, Abu Dhabi to talk all things rugby. Danny opens up about his disappointment at missing out on England’s World Cup squad, his interactions with Eddie Jones plus he makes a surprising confession that is sure to polarize opinion. Just what is going on at Saracens, what of Israel Folau’s move to Catalan Dragons, and how is social media changing the landscape for aspiring players? Danny doesn’t hold back.

Last summer, the Sheffield Eagles had arguably the biggest moment in their history when they came from behind to beat Widnes at Wembley to win the first-ever 1895 Cup. It was a huge moment for the rugby league side - and watching it all unfold was Eagles' general manager Liam Claffey. He's a man that lives and breathes the Eagles - and, as a gay man, he's certainly been in demand as the sport reacts to the signing of Izzy Folau by the Catalan Dragons. We reckon this is a cracking listen and a proper insight into what it's like to be a GM - doing everything from administration to marketing to designing the kit - and how you match professionalism with the passion you have as a fan.

Bad people and their thoughts such as Margaret Court, Israel Folau and being Sinophobic about the coronavirus are still the greatest plagues in the west. That and more on the latest Uncuckables show with Tim Wilms Editor in Chief of The Unshackled, David Hiscox Editor of the XYZ, and making his debut is Bradley the Western Australian Chair of the Australian Protectionist Party. It's the 50th anniversary of Margaret Court's four grand slam wins in a single year. Tennis Australia chose to recognize but celebrate her achievements due to her Christian views on sodomy, marriage, and gender. Isreal Folau has signed a new playing contract with the French Rugby team the Catalan Dragons but will be gagged from repeating his Christian views. The Coronavirus outbreak in central China at present has led to 170 deaths and the city of Wuhan in quarantine lockdown. Confirmed cases have spread to other nations including Australia, we've been told Coronavirus is not an excuse to be Sinophobic. Theories about the cause of the virus are conflicting with some blaming batsoup, while others believe it is a bioweapon release. Despite the left hating Australia they still care about the Order of Australia honours as feminists like Jane Caro are happy to accept them, and they want men's rights activist Bettina Arndt stripped of her recent Australia Day honour with Victorian Attorney-General Jill Hennessy writing to the Governor-General to request that happen.

Darren and Eleanor debate whether sporting personalities should be able to voice their beliefs – no matter how controversial they are. It comes after Israel Folau – who was sacked by Australia Rugby for making homophobic comments on social media - signed for Super League side Catalan Dragons this week. Britain’s first openly gay rugby player, Halifax prop Keegan Hirst, tells us why he’s appalled that Catalan Dragons have signed Folau, whilst BBC Religion Editor Martin Bashir explains Folau’s interpretation of religion. Also on ‘The Inside Track’ – we look at what legendary basketball player Kobe Bryant’s legacy might be, after he died along with his 13-year old daughter Gianna and seven others in a helicopter crash on Sunday.

The first rule of FightTube is you always talk about FightTube. On Saturday 25th August, two youtubers will box each other in front of thousands in Manchester Arena and millions watching online around the world on youtube. Sportshour has spoken to youtuber Elliot Hackney and independent media analyst Alex Degroote about how this will change the sport and the platform. On the same day, history could also be made at Wembley Stadium, when French Rugby League side Catalan Dragons face Warrington Wolves in the Challenge Cup final. No foreign side has ever won the trophy. The Dragons rise in the sport is even more remarkable considering the sport was banned by the Nazi Puppet Government in Vichy during World War 2. Robert Fassolette talks about the ban and the impact it had on the sport. Plus, can Usain Bolt really play football? The Jamaican had a trail with Norwegian side Stromgodset earlier this year, assistant coach Martin Foyston talks about Bolt's football career and Long Drive golfer Sandra Carlberg talks about aiming for a sixth world title.
