"It is only when you get a real injury or setback that it makes you think of life after rugby.."

A new course is being offered to professional rugby players for when they retire or if their career doesn’t work out. Financial services company LIA and Rugby Players Ireland say it’s because rugby can be an unpredictable career. Andrea chats to Tommy Bowe, Former Ireland International and the presenter of Ireland AM on Virgin Media One.
