Simon comes onto the podcast on the back of a Super Rugby Championship last season and a tour with the Maori All Blacks. Simon is the Head of Physical Performance at Crusaders in New Zealand and brings a wealth of experience & knowledge of working in Rugby Union. In this podcast with Simon, I think he gives the most coherent and detailed answer I have had when it comes to asking the question about culture, what it is and how it's developed. As well as that, we dive into the day to day workings at Crusaders as well as building an environment where competition is relished, not shied away from.
