Premiership Rugby is back — and it might just be the toughest league in English sport.

Brutal collisions, fierce rivalries and some of the biggest names in rugby. On this episode of The Sports Agents, we go inside the Gallagher PREM to discover what makes English club rugby so unforgiving — and why this season is one you cannot ignore.

England Captain and British & Irish Lions star Maro Itoje, Scotland superstar Finn Russell and Wales’ Louis Rees-Zammit join us to reveal what it really takes to survive — and thrive — at the very top of the game.

If you think you know Premiership Rugby, think again.
