We asked Brian Barrett why he brought the guys to MMA, he said….

“To have something different at the start of the season, to make new guys bond together, MMA is a one to one sport but they way they did it allowed them to interact as a team sport, an awful lot of it is compatible to rugby, on how you bring someone down, fitness balance and mental attitude”.
