Freddie Burns Opens Up: “A Hell of a Journey” | Honest England Career Reflection🔥🥰🏉

Описание: Few rugby careers are as colourful, chaotic, and honest as Freddie Burns’ 🏉🔥

Speaking on the For The Love Of Rugby podcast, the former England fly-half delivers a raw and emotional assessment of his journey through professional rugby — from early promise and England caps, to unforgettable club moments and life playing across the world.

Burns reflects on:
👉 His five England caps and why his international career never fully took off
👉 Facing the All Blacks and the pressure of Test rugby
👉 Being compared to Owen Farrell and George Ford — and why consistency mattered
👉 His legendary last-minute drop goal to win Leicester Tigers the Premiership 🏆
👉 A career defined by moments, risk, and personality, not bitterness

Once tipped as a future England star, Burns accepts he was a maverick fly-half — capable of brilliance on his day, but honest about his flaws. Rather than dwelling on what might have been, he chooses gratitude over regret.

“I’d rather be thankful for the five caps I’ve got than bitter about the ones I didn’t.”

From Gloucester and Bath to Leicester, New Zealand, Japan, and now Romania 🌍 — this is a story about resilience, self-awareness, and loving the game for what it gives you.
