The Rob Kearney Episode An Irishman Abroad

    • Personal Journals

This week, Leinster, Ireland and Lions rugby legend Rob Kearney joined Jarlath for a rare long-form conversation about his life and career.
Rob opens up about being bullied at school, how he is being patient with himself in retirement and how a mistake in the gym one day at the age of 19 caused him one of his biggest career regrets.
Rob speaks openly about why international rugby in Ireland is suffocating, his recent move to the GAA, Michael Cheika, contemplating staying in Australia, how he didn't feel welcome at Leinster for a number of years and much more.
