LW 28: Rowland Phillips - a podcast by London Welsh RFC

This weeks' guest is former dual code International, Wales Women Head Coach and London Welsh player and coach Rowland Phillips.  Rowland commenced his rugby journey in St David's and became a Neath RFC legend playing for them in the mid to late 80's before he took the decision to move to Rugby League.  Clive Griffiths brought Rowland back to Union at London Welsh where we turned professional for the 1997 season in National 1. Rowland stayed two seasons, before he played out the rest of his career as Player Coach for Neath RFC.  He had a glory period as Head Coach for Neath in the 90's winning 4 consecutive Premiership Titles and went on to Coach Wales Defence  and Ospreys forwards in the 2000's. He then headed  to Italy for 4 years, before he had a season and a half coaching London Welsh in the Premiership and Championship, wining the British & Irish Cup for the club.  A great gregarious character;  we hear some real honesty from Rowland about his career and his time at London Welsh.
