Anthony Watson: From Lions Tour to World Cup Final — And the Comeback That Nearly Didn’t Happen


In this short-form episode, British & Irish Lion and England star Anthony Watson joins us to share his top 3 career highlights—and the hard lessons that came in between.


He reflects on:


  • Winning the Grand Slam in 2016

  • Starting all three tests on the 2017 Lions Tour

  • Coming back from a double Achilles rupture to start in the 2019 Rugby World Cup final

  • What it means to “Keep the main thing the main thing”



He also shares hilarious off-field memories from Australia and the friendships that shaped his journey.
