THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER ‘Hilarious, and straight talking but
also articulate and insightful – I am just hugely fond of this
guy’ –Eddie Jones ‘James Haskell: what a flanker, what a
book’ –Rugby World ‘I’d like to be remembered as a player
who showed that you can be incredibly professional but also a lot
of fun – a bit of a joker in the changing room, but the ultimate
competitor on the pitch. That should have been the subtitle of this
book, really…’ One of rugby’s most ferocious flankers and
biggest characters, James Haskell has had an extraordinary, global
experience of the game, having played for the Wasps, Northampton
and England, and in New Zealand, France and Japan. After seventeen
years and with 77 international caps under his sizeable belt, he
has a shitload to say about rugby life – from pitch to pub and
everywhere in between. In What A Flanker, Haskell sheds fresh
light on the dynamics and the day-to-day of the game. Whether
he’s recalling the most brutal team socials; dispelling the myths
surrounding New Zealand’s dominance; introducing his Japanese
teammates to manscaping or calling out play-acting in the modern
game, no subject is off limits. Â Side-splittingly funny and
ruthlessly honest, What A Flanker delves into the
touring, drinking, training, eating and sometimes unconscionable
antics of the professional rugby player. It’s an unforgettable
read, even if there are some stories you’d rather forget…
[Correction: in the author biography and on p.22 of this book, it
is stated in error that the House of Rugby podcast is now known as
The Good, The Bad and The Rugby. The House of Rugby podcast
continues and The Good, The Bad and The Rugby is a separate
podcast.]
