- Episode 2: Can Rugby Players handle the training of the Royal Marines?
The boys travel down to Lympstone to train at the Commando Training Centre. Watch the Chiefs get pushed to the limits as they battle through the physical challenges of the assault course, the psychological challenge of the endurance course, and the exhaustion of the mud of the river Exe.

An absolute pleasure to work with you all 👍🏻
Immensely proud of all our heroes, service men and women.
Your training is brutal, but the lads looked like they l enjoyed it
37 year's on and I'm still devastated at not making it past the career's office interview. Yes, that's correct I passed the exams but failed the interview. I truly believe that I had the physical attribute's and mental fortitude to become a RM Commando. I guess it wasn't meant to be.
@@manosparavida3551 Gotta move on, bro.
@@MrJamesdryableIn due course I intend to lol
Former Royal Marines Commando here, I've watched a load of sports teams do these events over the years but you boys threw yourselves into it with far greater enthusiasm and commitment than any I've seen before.
Top Class, well done to all.
(But I'm still going to remain a Falcons fan)!
During lockdown I got the chance to work with some of the Royal Marine Commandos on the ambulance. What a top bunch of lads. Huge respect to them and all our armed forces!
Old Veteran Royal Marine here, i remember the bottom field, mud runs, and the endurance course very well, the lads from the Exeter Chiefs did a great job as a team, Hoofing effort boys
The marines training is brutal. Well done lads! And immensely proud of all our service men and women 💪
Yh they pushed them two certain degree but not overly if they did the full training well good luck, what I am trying two say it was gentle can't going around crocking half a rugby team lols
That was not easy for the lads. It shows me just how F*n tough our Royal Marines are. They do that on their match day whilst being shot at and watching their pals die. Hardcore.
The hardest part about the mud runs and associated estuary activities is cleaning the gear, your clothes and yourself afterwords.. good times
Hoofing Effort Chiefs 👍
Brought back memories from years ago ! Bottom field in summer.....luxury. But a great watch ,well done lads !
From watching this, I can tell yenz and Stu are great characters within the squad. Love to see it! Keep it up lads 💪
I love these please upload these weekly
Well done lads, that's what the Commando spirit is all about, team work and keep smiling through the pain and driving on. Remember doing the endurance course with my section on Cpl's course with one of those telegraph poles 🤣🤣👌👌👍👍
I was the most popular person in the entire Royal Navy.... The local barman. 😂😂
I tried joining the Royal Marines, but a knee injury kept me out. Nothing but respect for those who make it.
And one day you ran out of beer 🥸
OH DEAR 😱
Found this via FB and love it. Brought up on a large tough council in South East London in the 60s and went to a secondary modern but we never played rugby because it was too rough for us, apparently. Thank God for that then but I have huge respect for the players and our Marines. Definitely got a new sub. More please.
Oh how I miss those days of fitness.
well done all round , great stuff
Cracking effort in the Exe gents - I can still taste the mud from when we went through it way back - didn't seem as much fun then though LOL
Great respect.
Pays to be a winner!
good old lympstone!!!...I don't miss the mud run lol
Class lads!
Fantastic bonding
Looked like they were lots of fun
I was at CTC in 79, the place has changed a lot, the bottom field hasn’t . The regain was all about technique. Great video.
259 Trp 79' Kings Squad. The rest as they say is ...
Love it.. so many memories, will never forget the bottom field and the endurance course! 🤣
@@paulc4737 I can clearly remember washing my kit in the grotty wash rooms after a mud run, one other memory that always brings back training is the smell of wet hessian and 57 webbing that stuff was amazing when it got wet, you could stand it up in the corner of you room. How about the sores on your back and Woodbury rash. Ah the good old days.
158 Troop Jan 1981 .. never a day goes by without me thinking about my time there !
230 troop 78. Good and bad memories 🤣
Nothing new here I can remember in the early 80s hosting a couple of 1st division football teams. \great fun
Just boys being boys man so nice to see. Society is trying to take this away
There should be more like this. I bet there was a few sore bodies the looked to be few laughs
Wow mate Glad you’ve done well who was your Troop PTi lin training lol 😂
hoofing effort
Wot no webbing or equipment "tut tut" 😎
Looked like a hard but fun work out. Hopefully good prep for a successful season.
Have they added training to stop a dinghy in vasion.
Asa Bootneck mum of a PTI, I have done years of cleaning mud.
I remember England rugby did the same thing before the 2015 world cup. That didn't turn out to well. 😁
That’s down to actual skill with a rugby ball not fitness you numpty.
They did it b4 the 2003 WC. How did that turn out !!!
@@44reaver Did they...? Can you back that up with proof.
@@brianmcsweeney9401 , certainly can, i was down there.. Woodward picked his final squad for the WC, he knew they would not win in 1999, it was all geared up for 2003. Johnson mentioned it in his book and somewhere on youtube there is a vid...The squad spent time with the elite amphibious force in the run-up to the 1999 tournament, but Woodward says there wasn't enough time for their lessons to take effect. His side suffered a heavy loss to South Africa in the quarter-finals.
Four years later, it was a different story, as the Marines culture had really taken hold within the England set-up.
Woodward remembers a senior Marine trainer telling him: “Ok, if you want to hear it, there are men in your squad who we wouldn’t go into battle with. It’s not about their skills, it’s about their attitude and effect on the team.
“In high-pressure combat situations just one negative trait can destroy a whole team. One wrong team player can sap the energy from the whole group.”
Woodward began to implement their recommendations as soon as the 1999 tournament had finished.
“After the World Cup the energy sappers were all sorted out,” Woodward remembers. “Some I managed to turn around. In every case none of them had actually realised that what they’d been doing behind the scenes could cause so many problems.
“England arrived at the World Cup with a 30-strong team of energisers plus another 20 at home hoping to take part.”
@@44reaver Great story. 👍
We did this as 13 yr Olds as Army cadets and as Rugby players from Blundells school. Looks like Chiefs need to man up this season as Top 4 going to be tough which prob Sarries, Tigers, Gloucs & Quins
I've always thought rugby players and boxers would be the best equipped for bottom field and the four Commando tests, (endurance test, nine miler, Tarzan assault course and thirty miler), in fact when you take in the exercises like final ex were yomping is a big part IMO rugby players should excel compared to other sportsmen.
Funnily enough, one of the founders of the SAS, Paddy Mayne was a top level rugby player…something in the water.
@@cg2bx264 Absolutely right, he captained Ireland and played for the British lions.
Surprisingly it's the parkour gents that were extremely adept with this training.
Even the PTIs said they'd all pass.
There's a vid on here relating to it.
Seemed to have a lot of the young guys involved, anyone know why a lot of them were sitting it out?
Perhaps nursing small niggles/ injuries which weren't worth risking by putting them through the course..
Can’t imagine any of the football lot doing this. Might chip their finger nails
Respect..only short hair…a la façon Légion Étrangère
The ones with hair was union players pal
Get them on pcompany
Guy Martin has done the honours,and didn't struggle too much.
He's not particularly made for military training,100% when it comes to courage though.
@@h7283 you must b solid he did the trainasium missing the log stretcher steeple 10 miler 20 miler and 2
Where were the Chiefs stars...??
Stay tuned to find out
Do Rugby players surrender?
M
Well done all.
But this new chiefs logo is a joke.
Well done RM, you are the pride of the armed forces.
Chiefs, RIP brand
No weapons no webbing. "All day"!? I think we both know the answer to that, don't we!? Back in the day, that type of hubris would have been removed, quicker than your hair.
Since when was it standard practice to have chest length beards and pony tails in the military??? WTF
Not standard of days gone by!!!
But they were rugby players not military
Yes indeed rugby union players not hard to figure out
Since when was it the standard to have long beards and ponytails in the marines/military???
The levels aren't what they used to be WTF...
They're rugby players... they're not actually in the marines. They're just training with them...
Oh dear 🤪
All that so called training and still lost there last two wars in Afghanistan and iraq😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
So pointless all it does it cause injuries they are pro athletes there’s no need to do this stuff they can team build elsewhere
There's nothing like adversity for team building.
I’m tired watching this. Lol
