Rugby Journal's Best Reads of 2023

Polly Barnes

A former player and now co-founder of the Women’s Rugby Association, Polly’s early rugby education included Lydney bloodying the nose – literally – of Pienaar’s Saracens and neglecting her job to sneak into Twickenham. Later, she tried the trick herself in an attempt to bloody the nose of a certain Welsh scrum-half. She’s also the wife of a former ear-pierced, curtain-wearing, ‘mega loser’ called Wayne. Who happens to be the best ref in the world.
