Plus, we've got all the fallout from Jordie Barrett's bench role, Caelan Doris injury whispers, Fin Smith and Polock's meteoric rise, and some listener questions, including who from Lions history we'd bring back for 2025 and whether 100 Jim Hamilton could actually take down a gorilla.

A one club man and a product of their academy. Amassing over 350 appearances a testament to his durability, consistency, and dedication to the game.   Alex's journey from a young prospect to one of the most respected props in the Premiership is so inspiring. He played a pivotal role in Northampton's historic double-winning season in 2014, scoring the decisive try in extra time of the Premiership final against Saracens, to win their first ever premiership title. Before going onto win the European challenge cup against Bath in an iconic season for the club.    With his work ethic, leadership on and off the pitch, fierce competitive spirit and extreme loyalty to his club and teammates, Alex is a role model for aspiring athletes across all sports. He embodies everything great about sport full stop. Alex concluded his 15-season career this year playing a pivotal role in leading the Saints to their second Premiership title. This victory marked the culmination of Waller's playing career, during which he became the record appearance holder, amassing 370 caps.   On this episode we discuss; fighting to find opportunities, the reaction you need to bring to failure, sharpening your leadership skills and why it's so important to be surrounded by the best.    I love this guy.   I hope you enjoy.

As a close mentor to Dan Biggar, their relationship adds an extra layer of depth to the conversation, offering a unique perspective on coaching, leadership, and team dynamics.Show notes:Continuous Improvement for Elite Players"The very best players are gifted in one part of their game... but there's always something to work on."Boyd emphasises the importance of consistent self-improvement, regardless of a player's talentCreating a Culture of Empowerment"People that feel empowered, belong, connected are always going to want to try harder and perform better."Boyd fostered a culture at Saints where players felt supported and empowered, leading to better team cohesion and performancePhilosophy on Risk and RewardBoyd's allowed players to take risks: "The Kiwi attitude probably is a little bit more..., if we can hold on to the ball... we're back in the game."He contrasts the risk-averse mindset of Northern Hemisphere teams with the more fluid, risk-taking style from New Zealand rugbyBuilding a Resilient Team"You can't grow culture, culture grows itself."Boyd reflects on how setbacks, such as tough defeats, can be used to build resilience and foster a team's growthEmpathy and Connection in Leadership"Coaching rugby is a pleasure and a privilege... life experiences teach you to be calm."Boyd discusses the importance of emotional intelligence, both in coaching and managing peopleDeveloping Players Beyond Rugby"You get used to living on big wages... but when the game stops, you can fall off the cliff."He warns about the challenges players face post-retirement and importance of planning for life beyond sportThe Importance of 'Why'Boyd introduced a "Why Board" at Saints, where players would place personal photos to remind themselves of their purpose: "The last thing you saw before going out onto the pitch was why you were doing it."This initiative reinforced the idea that personal motivation connects with team successCoaching Style: Balancing the Carrot and StickBoyd contrasts his coaching style with that of other famous coaches: "Eddie Jones wanted to keep you on your toes... with me, it was black and white."He believes in being clear and consistent with players, empowering them to express themselves without fear of failurePlease leave a review if you like the podcast; and share with friends.
