## Resource

Jess is joined this week by two of the biggest names in women's rugby, Rosie Galligan and Marlie Packer, for a special Rugby Rodeo episode. The trio discuss the emotional news that both Rosie and Marlie will be leaving Saracens at the end of the season, reflect on their time in North London, and look ahead to one final shot at PWR glory in black and red. The conversation then turns to Rosie and Marlie's journey to parenthood. They open up about IVF, pregnancy, the support they've received from the Red Roses, and the realities of balancing elite sport with starting a family. From emotional milestones to funny pregnancy moments, it's an honest, inspiring and deeply personal chat with two trailblazers of the women's game. Yee-haw! Learn more about your ad choices.
