Hosts Dallen Stanford & Robin MacDowell are joined by legend Chris Wyles for #RugbyHive Episode 18.
Wyles played 54 times for the USA Eagles from 2007 to 2015, taking part in 3 Rugby World Cups and was named Captain America for the 2015 event in England. He represented USA Rugby for 3 years on the HSBC World Rugby Sevens Series, scorching 50 tries in just 13 tournaments. He returned to play Sevens and wear the USA jersey at the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro.
Wyles also played over 250 times for Saracens from 2008 to 2018, winning 4 Premiership Rugby titles and two European Championships. Following his retirement from the game, he founded Wolfpack Lager with fellow Saracens teammate Alistair Hargreaves.
In today's episode we talk about growing up in America, studying politics at the University of Nottingham, and starting his own business.
We chat about the 2007 World Rugby Try of the Year scored by Taku Ngwenya, playing international 7s and 15s, the comeback for the Olympic Games and success on and off the field with Saracens.
