Box 2 - Episode 44: Phil Davies

In the latest episode of season three of 'Box Two', which is brought to you in association with our partners Best Western GB, Leeds Rhinos Head of Media & PR Phil Daly talks to former Welsh Rugby Union international and ex-Leeds Tykes Director of Rugby Phil Davies.

Davies spent over a decade at Headingley with Leeds Tykes taking them from the fourth tier of English club Rugby Union to the elite of European Rugby. He talks about his love of Rugby League, not least watching his brother-in-law Jonathan Davies during his successful career with Widnes, Warrington, Wales and Great Britain.

He reveals how he too nearly switched codes and gives an insight into his current role Director of Rugby for World Rugby and how both codes now have a willingness to share ideas to improve player safety.
