The latest episode of Stick to Rugby, brought to you by Defender, welcomes Wales and Lions winger Alex Cuthbert to the panel alongside Scott Quinnell, Tom Shanklin, Katy Daley-McLean and Phil Vickery! π΄σ §σ ’σ ·σ ¬σ ³σ Ώ
Alex opens up about the social media abuse that nearly broke him, the pressure of playing for Wales during tough times, and the shock of being dropped after scoring a try for the Lions. π¦
He lifts the lid on tour chaos, beating England in Cardiff, and the whirlwind journey from university student to the British & Irish Lions in just two years.
Alex also reflects on the joy of Grand Slam glory, rediscovering his love for rugby at Exeter, and why the Welsh rugby public can be both brutal and brilliant.
A raw, honest and hugely entertaining chat with one of Welsh rugbyβs most electric try-scorers.
