Rugby Journal  |  Issue 32
This issue of Rugby Journal begins by looking to the future, as we profile five members of England’s Next Generation, who will be making their mark on the international game in the years to come. There’s long reads on Canadian and Australian superstars Sophie de Goede and Len Ikitau, as well as a deep dive on Zimbabwe, who will be appearing at the next Rugby World Cup in 2027. We also travel to Kingsholm Stadium as UKAF take on Rugby Europe opposition with Semesa Rokodugini making his debut, Grasshoppers RFC for the Si Ledwith Cup which celebrates ten years of Visually Impaired Rugby, and Samoa for The Game. There’s England rugby’s chef Tom Kirby, who, in the wake of going viral on social media tells us how he learned to cook with military precision at the Savoy and Peter Winterbottom, on how he became one of England’s most iconic openside flankers. Finally, we head to Rugbytown USA, catch up with Tom Shanklin, and look at the convoluted history of Cup competitions.
