An Evening with Will Carling in Conversation with Matt Stadlen Will Carling, England's youngest ever rugby union captain and icon of the game, joins Matthew Stadlen for an evening of reflections, stories and analysis. A triple Grand Slam winner and World Cup finalist, England’s longest-serving leader will talk leadership, skill and camaraderie. Unafraid to speak his mind, Carling famously described the Rugby Football Union executives as “57 old farts”. Carling will also address changing rules and the future of a sport facing existential questions. Don’t miss a rare chance to hear one of England’s greatest ever players and captains share his insights and humour from his experiences on and off the pitch. Presented in association with Clive Conway Productions.

Was Jerry Guscott the greatest centre he played with or against? Did it mean more to him playing for England or the British and Irish Lions? How did the amateur years compare to the professional era?
