Andy Titterrell: In an office job, you are working in the same location every day and with the same people, so it’s possible to get into a comfortable routine. But in rugby, every week is different depending on who you’re playing against, and there’s a lot of travel involved. It’s also the times away from rugby that can be hard, when you’re injured for example. Your daily structure is taken away from you, and you’re not surrounded by your team-mates when you’re rehabbing, so it can leave you feeling isolated. In addition, for professionals, contract negotiations can go down to the wire; clubs leave it til the last minute to sign players and this is effectively playing with people’s lives. At that stage you can be offered less money than you were on before and it’s a stressful situation, especially if you have a family to support.
