Hello and welcome everybody to another edition of the Byron podcast. Today we are joined by the brand spanking new England coach, Brian McDermott. Brian, first off, congratulations on the appointment. How are you feeling about it all?
Yeah, very good. Really excited, very proud, immensely proud.
Chapter 8: What are the expectations for England in the upcoming World Cup?
Yeah, lots of work to do at the moment, but yeah, pretty pumped, absolutely.
Yeah, obviously a very proud Englishman.
Is there any other version? Everybody says that about every Englishman.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, I think there's some turncoats out there, especially those that, there are some that live in Australia that, you know, sort of maybe disassociate themselves with the motherland. Maybe, maybe. You certainly not. Yeah.
how special is this to you and i know you've you've wanted this job for a long long time and anybody that goes into to head coaching in england i feel like this is the dream job to coach the national team it still has that level of prestige i think every every guy would would want it on his list of things to do uh for some it may be unrealistic for some it may be closer but
I don't know anybody who would say, no, I wouldn't ever do that job. I think everybody would want it. But I don't think it's something you chase either. I don't think it's something you're out there to pursue and it's on the top list. What you've got to do is your job at club level really well. And hopefully that opportunity comes your way.
Yeah, listen, if everything you do in your career to represent your country, to represent your nation, as you're well aware, is a big deal. And then to be the coach of that team, it'd be my proudest moment in my career. Regardless what we do this year, regardless how the World Cup goes.
Because the responsibility you have, I just don't know whether you get given that much responsibility ever again. I remember coaching the Rhinos for many years and that was a responsibility. They were a... a winning team, and when I joined, they'd already won a few things, and you had to keep that up. And I felt some pressure and some responsibility to deliver.
And at times it gets a bit, it can be a bit overwhelming, and especially when you're not winning. But the responsibility of leading your nation, I think it's a big deal, though. And it's a big deal, and it's something that should be cherished. I feel very privileged that I've been given that responsibility, very excited by it.
