Our fifth guest is Harlequins fullback Tyrone Green. Tyrone exploded into the consciousness of Harlequins fans on our run to the 2021 Premiership Title – but his journey is one that started many years previously honing his skill at every level of the game in his native South Africa, proving there’s no such thing as an overnight success. Tyrone shares with us the singular goal that keeps him focussed, his passions outside of rugby including a love of all things anime, and how his previous experiences, from injuries, to successes have shaped the man, and Harlequin, he is today.

Our third guest is Harlequins winger, Louis Lynagh – in many ways Louis is a typical 22 year old enjoying gaming, fashion, and spending time with friends. However beneath this is a complex and driven individual. Already a Premiership Winner, he is also studying for his Economics degree at the University of Surrey. But it’s not all been plain sailing, he shares his struggles openly and honestly after his meteoric rise, growing up with a famous father, and his obsession for improving his game.

As always we also discuss his spending habits, and any tips he has learned on the way… and as a proud Arsenal fan whether he thinks this can be their year…!

Our second guest is Harlequins Women’s forward, Bryony Cleall – as a two time Premiership Champion, and three time 6 Nations winner, two of those Grand Slams she is no stranger to success. However her career has been anything but straightforward, from balancing her rugby with her career as a teacher, two major injuries leaving her questioning whether the sport was for her and all that whilst being a twin sister to Poppy! Bryony’s journey is eye opening and honest, as we explore how she became a Harlequin, and there’s even a few bonus restaurant recommendations too, but you’ll need to listen to hear more on that!
