As a die-hard Bradford supporter, I take my hat off to Kevin Sinfield. A really tough competitor on the pitch - but what a hell of a man off it!
Seeing this for the first time in Dec 2022 - what an impact he has now had on Union coaching with Leicester. ……And who knows what lies in store for the future.
Ladies and Gentlemen we have a winner..... never been a league fan but Kevin Sinfield, what a man. Absolute brilliant podcast this week. Best episode of the season.
Kevin Sinfield was, and is, exceptional. What a talent.
Kevin Sinfield, what an absolute gent. Steve Borthwicks' secret weapon.
What a great ambassador for sport in general and a role model - oozed class & humility. Telling why he was Captain for so long and why Leeds achieved what they did.
Sir Kevin Sinfield - what an absolute legend. Just so much respect for him as a player, and as a man.
I watched all the interviews he did with BBC Breakfast when he was doing this challenge. Absolute inspiration to most not just for the cause he was doing it for but just an absolute legend of the League!!!
Sir Kevin Sinfield is and always will be pure class. Fabulous player on the pitch and an exceptional man off it.
One of the best Good,Bad and the rugby.Sir Kev is a legend.
I’m from Australia and knew the name Kevin Sinfield well from when the Kangaroos would play Great Britain in tests throughout the 2000s and 2010s I guess. I didn’t know anything about him personally until watching this video. He seems like a terrific guy and obviously the work he’s done for MND etc is outstanding. Glad I watched this.
What a player, what an outstanding human being, what a role model.
This is probably my favourite episode so far! Never been a big league fan but what a guy. So interesting to hear his story and amazing the things he has done for charity.
I’m a union fan but no team has given me as much pleasure to watch as THAT Rhinos side
Not only was Sinfield a true great of League, but he’s an exceptional person.
Wonderful episode, Sir Kev is an inspiration and very humble, great to see the two codes like this
What an absolute legend (coming from a Saints fan) and we'd all do well to remember that true happiness lies in the service of others.
What a humble bloke you are Kevin, but you dont suffer fools, and what a great friend, supporter off rob , nice to be important, but important to be nice , many thanks for the 7 challenge ,makes you believe in humanity ?cheers
Yes! Yes! Yes!!!!!!!! The Crossover episode we’ve all been waiting for!!!!
❤️League!!!! ❤️GBR!!!!
It was about time!
@@GoodBadRugby what a great conversation! GBR, you are the best!!
What an absolute top man. You can listen to sportsmen talking their games, but you can also tell when someone has elevated to a different class both in their sport and life. Another excellent show, maybe the best along with the Jason Robinson episode.
Best podcast on UA-cam! Having played rugby since a kid this really hit home, absolutely loved Burrow and Sinfield. Best wishes Rob ❤️
What a gentleman! Really enjoyed that.
I've grown up watching and loving Rugby League being a Widnes girl and Kev is an absolute LEGEND of the game! What a man, what a player....
I love both codes. I do media for California Rugby League. I was also at the LA Giltinis game last night. That's our Union comp. When I watched the Burrows documentary I literally cried about 5 times in my kitchen doing the dishes. I'm sure my Mrs. was wondering what I was watching. Ha
Excellent Pod, can we have a few more cross league cross overs please?
I live in a massively league area, and do get my fair share of banter for being a yawnion kick and clap fan. but they are both immense sports, and I love union, really like league. there is still a massive resentment towards union ( not totally unjustified)
more like this please
I think such small resentment as still exists, is only to do with the attitudes of a small minority of union supporters - and not cross-code players.
I have been a supporter of both Bradford Bulls and Wasps for decades - and am equally passionate about both codes. Sadly, it seems as though my support seems to signal the imminent demise of any team - but I’m hoping that Aston Villa and Warwickshire CC manage to break the voodoo.
Sinfield was a top top player in a world class Rhinos side. But what he has done since leaving the game has shown that he is a true legend on and off the field and rugby as a whole should be proud of what he has done in the last 12 months. #SirKev
Alex you said a wonderful man and that is 1 million percent correct
Kevin is the epitome of what you would associate with the name "athlete". I could definitely see him doing the 737 Challenge done by Richard Parks.
The best episode I've watched. I think I now have a man crush on Kevin Sinfield. What a man and what a player!
Enjoyed this one,Kevin Sinfield he’s a
credit to the UK,what a Man!
Headingley born and raised and that side that is the reason I love rugby to this day!
I was at Headingley when Kev made his home debut. I remember him scoring a really cheeky try when the opposition player went a bit easy on the 16 year old in the tackle. Don't think any team ever made that mistake again.
Great show! The Sir Kev comes from us (Yorkshire) bestowing our own honour on people we know should be knighted but won't be because of sporting politics or being too outspoken. Geoff Boycott was another one. He was always known as Sir Geoffrey in Yorkshire when I was a kid. Kev has been Sir Kev at Headingley for years. As he's doing the business in Union he'll probably get one now! I jest! 😆
Top player.top man.praise indeed from a cas fan.
Absolutely brilliant !
as a Rhinos fan, i thank you! always great to hear Sir Kev speak. Jamie Peacock would be a great one to pick his brains absolute machine and now a motivational speaker. Also Stevie Ward who does his own 'Mantality', promoting mens mental health, named Rhinos Captain then had to retire due to long term affects of a concussion injury. Any other League players lined up?
Brilliant interview. Top man
What a total legend
Great chat. Well done 👏
Great session with a great RL player.
Brilliant interview
What a boy. Great pod.
Great episode gents 👍🏻
Sir Kev is a legend.
What a legend
Love this man
Would have been nice to see him give the nrl a go but he won everything with Leeds so can’t blame him. But what he’s done for rob and the charities is unbelievable. Should be sir no doubt
That was well worth the listen. Kev was a great player and is a sound bloke. Wish you had asked him about some of the guys he played against - who he rated - Lockyer, Thurston, Inglis, RTS, SBW etc etc
Enjoyed the show although I only started to know what is rugby league only two years ago because there literally no league down here in RSA what man kevin is solid guy
It was banned in SA thats why chief.
@@thomastimms88 not quite .. I have a. ,one friend who played for the South African rugby league Rhinos team alongside his Cats /lions franchise years contracts .He played for Sa for the rhinos in a rugby league World Cup in the early 2000,s . It was never really mainstream media on super sport etc but it was never banned as I remember …. It’s still going according to my boet
Im a kiwi leaguey but grew up playing rugby and always wondered why RSA has never had a league team.. Yous a very much like us polynesian you love the physical stuff lol its a game that suits your guys style
Having had a long and strongly emotional ties to Yorkshire/Lancashire,(Girlfriends/Ex's/and almost a couple of wives) I enjoyed League, but my Soul is Union. I lived in Hull for a few years and loved going to the Derby, (more like a football match, serious tear-ups). Hearing Sir Kev speak and his life story is a model for any young and upcoming sports men and women. What a man! This bloke should be employed by the UK Sports Council as a mentor/guide! Great episode!
The show is always better without Hask the Gob though.......
Well said. Couldn't put it better myself
what a top man, great pod....
Should have asked him to select a rugby league 13 using union players!!
What a great challenge! Hope they pick it up 👏🏻
none of the union probs will make it in league lol
Brilliant idea !! Also the reverse would be equally interesting. Pity in a way that Union never saw the best of Lesley Vainikolo, Faz, and Henry Paul - but actually good for League that they held on to them all in their prime.
Sir kev🙌
Great show.just a point Kevin.smile more.
I may be picking up or missing out on a tongue in cheek comment, and apology if so, but a straight answer to this is, I don't believe he has to perform for the audience. His natural northern charm is the very essence of that he is what he is, love it or hate it.
I remember when Crusaders started in Wrecsam. I remember the excitement and the games. They actually still exist you know. North Wales Crusaders, still in Wrecsam. In League one semi pro. I still follow them. Crusaders in League and Llanelli in union, (now Scarlets), a gentle 3.5 hours drive between stadiums. But still Cymru. Cymru am byth.
Sir Kevin Sinfield...yes! Lord Alex Payne... absolutely yes!!!
Isn't this the dude that's going to help salvage England....no pressure Hey!!
What this individual has done for MND, Rob Burrow and for his sport has been absolutely incredible. The whole sporting community should be lobbying the Prime minister to get this Guy a knighthood. Or should he drive a car around a track 80 times and hide his money in a tax haven to get it.
Lock stock, come on Kevin.. do you think these 2 plummys watch stuff like that🤣
He's really not one of the greatest players to play rugby league and nobody would think that, even kevin himself. He is however the greatest captain to play for Leeds (from a Rhinos fan)
