Rugby is never going to be safe - Warburton

Former Wales and British and Irish Lions captain Sam Warburton says rugby can never be made totally safe despite rule changes to try and give players more protection.

Warburton, won 79 Test caps, was forced to retire from the game due to injury at the age of 29 but says he chose rugby precisely because of the greater physical challenge it presents over other sports.

The former Cardiff Blues back-row also assesses Wales' build-up to the 2019 World Cup and where the autumn internationals sit in that preparation.
