  • Summary

  • Growing up in Perth, Western Australia, Oliver Hoskins wanted to do one thing – play rugby. It turned out he was pretty good at it and when Perth was given the licence for Australia’s fourth Super Rugby team it appeared that he wouldn’t even have to leave home to play professional rugby.


    Hoskins soon found out that his path to the top wasn’t a simple line, with ups and downs pockmarking his young career and in the end, he left his home town club.


    Eventually he made the move to London Irish, where he found a mentor who helped turn him into a powerful tight-head prop, and a regular Premiership starter.


    He talks about how he dealt with struggling to make the step up to professional level, the overwhelming feeling of imposter syndrome, and getting to grips with life in London.
