Freedom — the state of not being imprisoned or enslaved. Donna Rose does not hesitate in her word selection when asked to sum up what rugby has given her.
She was branded a thug during her childhood, parents didn't want their kids to play with her and she faced doubts at what seemed like every turn. The Wales rugby international would go on to try to take her own life.
