Best episode of this season, could listen to Brian talk for hours, top bloke.

[@grahamearl1352]

Fascinating interview, just as much about Brian's background as well as the rugby. Every northern English catholic understands where he came from.

[@steveg3981]

Looking forward to seeing Brian bring the Wolfpack back to Toronto. We're going to have some great Saturday afternoons

Excellent. My first SL podcast view, partly because of the subject, a man I've always looked at with curiosity and now I have heard his story and thank you for sharing it, I now understand the man behind the image. Top bloke as others have stated, his disdain of some things, I applaud, and the fact he suffers from a similar issue I often face...insomnia..when you lay in bed for hours trying to sleep but eventually just get up and deal with the consequences the best you can, even if it involves a snarl now and then lol Thanks again 👍 (long time Rugby League fan, new to SL channel and subbed immediately)

A Bradford Bulls LEGEND An Unbelievable Go 4ward old school tough as teak. When he bashed the Leeds boys is another memory of him never to be 4gotten. And also a Rhinos Legend as coach. Top man great bloke, i would have loved him to coach BULLS rather Fev, But Good Luck Boom Boom

[@cgmuso6619]

Brilliant. Sometimes I wish these would go on for another hour.

[@martinharvey3990]

Brilliant interview! Fascinating listening again... these podcasts are getting better!

[@deaddropholiday]

Good show lads. About time people realised there is more great content to be leveraged out of current and former players than the game itself.

[@steveg3981]

Great insight into the coach. Hope the Wolfpack shares the link.

[@jamesfoster4503]

[@tonysmith3219]

I remember brian as a kid and he was a hard lad

[@SeriousAboutRL]

Superb that 👏

[@scalacareers3760]

Keighley Cougars was the first. COUGARMANIA was the team and time that changed rugby league.

[@christaylor5924]

That’s Completely changed my opinion of Brian. Really interesting stuff many thanks.

[@StevieSmith77]

top bloke. top podcast

[@stevewood238]

Very interesting the two most successful coaches of the last decade had really tough childhoods

[@deaddropholiday]

I should add, the "few bad apples" excuse is consistently used in relation to the church. But when the same stories are repeated time and time again across all continents then it ceases to be about individual examples of bad behaviour and becomes *institutionalised and systemic* abuse.

Brian Carney is from Cork not Dublin

[@eltel104]

I think born in Cork and played with munster but spent most of his years growing up in around Dublin. Before he went to league he won a Junior championship in GAA with Valleymount in county Wicklow which is right beside Dublin

[@simonpaget6658]

I didn't agree with how Leeds released him at all. No doubt in my mind that Leeds wouldn't have been as successful without him. I think he'll ensure Toronto avoid relegation too.
