No one has won more Super Rugby titles than Mitchell Drummond! A man who has done it all in the red and black jersey, Drummy has won 3 NPC titles with Canterbury and a ridiculous 8 Super Rugby titles with the Crusaders – yes, 8 titles! Add to that a test for the All Blacks, a stint with the Barbarians, over 100 games for Canterbury, and being the youngest ever Crusaders centurion and you start to get the picture.

But beyond the stats, Mitch has been the Glue Guy for the Canterbury Region for over a decade, a man who has genuinely put the team first and always nailed his role in the side whatever that may be.

In this episode, we chat about:

- An exclusive announcement on where he will be playing his rugby this season

- Why he chose Rugby over a promising Cricket career

- Why he turned down an offer from another Club

- How he went from playing against the All Blacks one week to playing for them the next

- An insight into the competitive rivalry with Bryn Hall

- His struggles with social media comments

- How he feels about his Dad owning the Highlanders

- And all of your questions!

Drummy also gives some great insights into leadership, what’s made the Crusaders successful, and great advice for young aspiring rugby player.

Mitch Drummond is one special human and this episode is one of the great episodes!
