S4: Episode 8: Fin Smith

Today we are very fortunate to be joined by up and coming Worcester Warriors fly half and the England U20 talisman Fin Smith. After having his breakthrough season in the premiership, Fin, fresh out of school from Warwick, set the record of being the youngest starter ever for the club. We talk about his tough start against a strong Bath side and how he has found the transition into the life of a professional rugby player. More recently Fin has taken centre stage in the U20 6 Nations and played a vital role in the victorious England team. We talk about life as a teenager in camp and how the RFU looked after and protected these young stars. Finn highlighted the excellent work which his being done at the warriors and by the RFU to look after these young players mental health. Finally Fin gives us his thoughts on the big game between the British and Irish Lions and South Africa. His beliefs on Gatland's selection and whether he thinks the series will be decided in the 2nd test. On the whole a thoroughly enjoyable talk getting the ins and outs of his career and picking his brains on different aspects of the game.
