Loose Head: Confessions of an (Un)professional Rugby Player

Joe Marler’s Loose Head is a riotous, candid memoir from one of rugby’s most outspoken props. He shares locker room antics, international tour escapades and personal introspection between penalties. Marler reflects on his mental health journey, public controversies and changing rugby culture. His tone is irreverent, humorous and refreshingly human—unafraid to show flaws. The book includes backstage glimpses of World Cups and England camp life. Through self‑deprecation and honesty, he offers a surprisingly heartfelt look at modern rugby’s mental toll.
