Ed Slattery has a passion for taking elite athletes to the next level as a hugely experienced strength and conditioning coach who has worked with Irish Rugby for coming up in a decade. Take a listen to this CV – Athletics Performance Coach for Irish women's rugby; Athletic Performance Coach for Sevens and Womens Rugby; Athletic Performance Coach for Mens Rugby; and now his current role as Head of Athletic Performance for the Womens Pathways and National team. What that means, to you and me, is that he's absolutely brilliant at helping get the absolute best out of players across the Irish national rugby set-up – and that has taken him through Six Nations campaigns, to the Tokyo Olympics and so much more. He's also been a long-time listener to the podcast – and when we started chatting about him coming on, he was more than happy to join us – even if he was worried he wouldn't have anything interesting to say. Turns out he was wrong about that, as he's a brilliant guest, and we get into all sorts of things! We talk about the skills of high-performance coaching and getting into it in the first place; about getting players on-board and seeing results; the Tokyo Olympics and that experience with Ed; his own personal journey and how being his authentic self made him a better coach; and loads, loads more. This isn't Ed's ‘coming out' story, as more than a few folks know his story – but plenty of others don't so we hope you enjoy it, as it's a cracking conversation with a great guy.

The woman some describe as the G.O.A.T. Black Fern Anna Richards - Joins me to discuss where to now for women's rugby after the hugely successful RWC just held in NZ. Anna is a 4 x RWC winner/multiple sevens title/ A member of the very first black ferns sevens team, the all-conquering Auckland storm, a World Rugby hall of fame inductee after playing 49 tests (54 games) for the Black Ferns from 1990-2010, Hong Kong Sevens Coach, Women's Barbarians head coach, and High Performance Unit director for Auckland Rugby Women's team...

New Zealand Rugby is celebrating for multiple reasons. The Black Ferns have drummed up huge support during their World Cup campaign, which ended in victory at a sold out Eden Park on Saturday night. New Zealand Rugby Chief Executive Mark Robinson says they haven't seen a game with this much public support and interest, since the pandemic. He says it's time they made the most of increased support and invest in the next generation of women's rugby. Robinson adds there are lots of opportunities ahead, and they want to keep up the momentum and work hard. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The fact Saturday was the highlight of Wayne Smith's coaching career tells you something. It's not like Smith hasn't been around a while and done a bunch of cool stuff. I do worry for the side given Smith and Sir Graham Henry are off to retirement and that's a lot of brilliance leaving the building. And you cannot deny that what they did transformed the team. The performance in the northern hemisphere and the performance through this World Cup have been your classic example of what coaching and strategy can achieve. The thing I enjoyed most about it all, was the joy the women play with, there is a lesson for everyone in it. You don't have to be tense and inward looking, the world doesn't have to sit on your shoulders, and the pressure doesn't have to get to you. You can in fact, as they have shown and Smith told us about several times on the programme, be mentally free. When you are mentally free all things are possible. You can truly express yourself. And if you are doing that and you happen to be blessed with the appropriate talent, the combination of the two is unstoppable. The lesson is applicable in all walks and forms of life, not just the sports field. In fact, it looked like it was a lesson the Brits hadn't quite learned. They were the favourites and by some margin and that last lineout was theirs. The maul they ran would have won them the game, and yet when it counted, they didn't cope. They weren't mentally free. The fact all this was played at home made it what it was, it's not like we haven't won it before. But we are in an age of promoting and recognising women's sport, plus we were doing it at our place, so all the ingredients were there. The sport has a way to go. The variation in talent is far too great. But if you are going to play host, it behoves you to come out victorious. And if you can arrange it by beating the previously best side in the world in a thriller, that's what makes sport magic.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today on the show I am joined by a fellow Australian Army veteran Mollie Grey.When I created the Go All In podcast one of the things that I wanted to do was to tell more Australian veteran stories. There plenty of podcasts out there that do that but not many with an Aussie flavour so its an incredible pleasure to be speaking with Mollie today.Mollie is an 11-year veteran of the Australian Army who served 1 tour in Afghanistan but there is so much more to Mollie than just a military story.As you will see Mollie is not only a soldier she is a true fighter and embodies absolutely everything it means to Go All In.From War to professional sport and the transition to life after the military there are some serious life lessons here for everyone.https://www.instagram.com/xmolliexgray/?hl=enhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/mollie-gray-79865199/?originalSubdomain=auhttps://twitter.com/mollie_gray89?lang=en

First up, Kevin Harvell of STL Tech Talk and Tech Informist joins the show to discuss tech and phones and Producer Bobby's love of hating the iPhone (errr wait....yep thats sort of correct).  But he also jumps in to give his opinion on the big story out of McKinney, Texas (Dallas) where a pool party goes awry and the police are called in.  All of which is fine as long as you are not one specific cop and his Lethal Weapon-esque style all caught on camera.  The guys discuss the implications and the racial inequality discussion that came out after the fact.Then we switch gears and talk with Gerogia Page calling in from Australia.  Georgia put on the black and gold for Lindenwood Unversity (Mark's Alma Mater) and played Womens Rugby....which eventually led to her showing how dominate and tough she is through ESPN replaying her clip over and over in their Top Ten plays. Georgia takes a massive hit and keeps on trucking.  We talk with her about the sport of womens rugby and Vegemite.Finally Mark goes all in discussing soccer in the midwest and specifically the attitude of fans in 2015 with regard to soccer in the US.  This brings up the attempts by some to bring Soccer back to prominence in the STL and Mark hits them all with a strong dose of reality only he can deliver.
