Summary
Two big exclusive interviews this week on The Sports Agents...
The new face of rugby, Henry Pollock, joined us in the studio. With two tries from one England cap, and now a Lions call up - this 20-year-old is on a rapid rise, and he’s using that fame to make rugby cool again with his try celebrations. (03:45)
Gabby and Mark also sat down with Bournemouth manager, Andoni Iraola. Under his guidance the club could qualify for Europe for the first time ever, and he and his players, like Dean Huijsen, are catching the eyes of Real Madrid! (12:15)

| 1:07.9 | Welcome to another weekend edition of the Sports Agents where you can catch up on our favourite bits from this week's podcast. Normally we throw in about four or five different subjects for the best bits, but there are only two men we're going to talk about here. Yeah, and it's interesting, you know, I thought that at the beginning of the week, oh, we've got two big interviews this week. And as you say, sometimes we have a myriad of topics, which I think, I know, I'm not just blowing the trumpet of the sports agents, |
