Description

This weekend marks the beginning of the 2023 6 Nations Rugby Championship. To mark the occasion, I want to share with you the story of the strangest ever iteration of the tournament by in 1972, when it was called the 5 Nations.A former British Lions captain, Tom Kiernan was one of the most recognised rugby players in the British Isles.

Was Kiernan's luck about to change?Check out The Luke Alfred Show on: Facebook YouTube
