Stormers kicking coach Gareth Wright has three rules for playing without fear. He can't say the first one out loud.Wright and Stormers scrumhalf Imad Khan break down what it actually takes to execute under pressure: box kicks, hang time, the snap, getting charged down, and what to do in the seconds after you make a mistake. Khan, 22 and stepping into a starting role in a big season, talks about playing without fear, finding his voice at scrum time, and the Bishops brotherhood that followed him all the way into professional rugby. Wright talks about the unseen work, the fingernails, and why the rugby purist cursing the box kick from his couch is missing the point entirely. They also unpack the Cardiff loss and what a home quarterfinal at DHL Stadium means to both of them.On this episode of the Lekker Rugby Pod, MW Welman and Harry Jones go Side-by-Side with a coach and his player.
