School Of Hard Knocks 2011 - Episode 2

The first episode of this year's School of Hard Knocks seems to have gone down quite nicely here, so rather than delay things further, this is the second episode of the thoroughly watchable rugby show.
In episode one we were introduced to the show as they did some recruitment for players, which wasn't as straight forward as they'd have thought. In fact it was quite a challenge at times. This week, in episode 2, we learn a bit more about some of the personal stories behind the players.
A visit to see Mark Prince turns out to be quite inspirational for many of the guys, as it was last year when Prince was visited in his boxing studio. This time it's more about the talk, but he also pushes them to their limits with some work outs and a motivational chat that proves to be life changing for many of the troubled youngsters.
One of the highlights of the show is when some of last year's participants return to give a talk on how staying in the program turned out to be one of the best things that has happened to them, with things turning around in their lives, including now playing rugby regularly.

I only recently learned this is the fourth series. I've the last two here on RD (thanks guys!), but is there any way of watching the very first?

I'd love to see something similar down here in South Africa. We have so many hopeless communities with so many young men headed for self destruction. This feels like it's made for parts of SA.

Didn't realise Will Greenwood had such an outspoken side!

Hopefully this years side can go further than last years, who were a bit pathetic really.

But...
Waiting until the day of the first game to tell them the difference between forwards and backs? Really?
