In this conversation we explore Talent ID and the 3 big mistakes that most talent system builders make. We also explore the phenomenon of cheating in sport and whether coaches should help players to use gamesmanship to gain an advantage. Finally, we look at Ross's work to use science to improve player welfare in rugby and explore the challenges of bringing about behaviour change in professional sport.
