Former English rugby union player Mike, 43 appeared on the 'Loose Men' edition of Loose Women today, May 12, alongside Vernon Kay, Johannes Radebe, and Roman Kemp, where he revealed how he teaches his children to lose.

During his rugby career, Mike was part of the winning team on many occasions - including in the 2003 World Cup and the Six Nations Championship.
Speaking on Loose Women today, Mike said: "I think there needs to be competition. There is an art to learning how to lose as well and taking it the right way. In sport, you always want to win; you should always want to win. You should be driven to always win.
