In the time since, the Gloucester centre has It’s been quite a journey for the former featured in an incredible Calcutta Cup draw Newcastle Falcons man, who hadn’t and featured at his first Rugby World Cup, in reckoned on playing international rugby Japan in 2019. until relatively late in his development.

I ended up having a concussion so went off for an HIA, passed that, came back on and scored two late tries, so as far as debuts go it was pretty good – even though we actually drew the game! “That led to some more game time but it was a slow burner, and then the season after I got much more involved.” That whirlwind to the top table of English club rugby game was certainly not something Harris had anticipated when he embarked on life as a student back when In action in the recent international he was a teenager, as he explained: “Rugby win over Georgia at BT Murrayfield honestly wasn’t on the cards.

Further involvement around the 2018 Summer tour and Autumn Tests followed, before he featured consistently in a busy 2019 schedule, including that aforementioned Calcutta Cup feast at Twickenham and the World Cup later that year. On that competition, Harris recalled:“The whole build-up to the World Cup, being selected in the initial squad and then gain selection for the final 31. I was over the moon with that, absolutely buzzing, and then to play in all four games was an amazing experience. It was obviously gutting the way we went out but that aside, it was an incredible 2019 summer journey.” If 2020 represents something of a shift in sporting events, the return of international rugby has been something of a saving grace for players and fans the world over at such a difficult time. Harris has featured against Georgia and Wales since the sport resumed in earnest in October and says the mood around the Scotland camp is ebullient, saying: “There’s a real buzz despite circumstances through coronavirus.

  • LEONARDO GHIRALDINI ANNUNCIA IL RITIRO DAL RUGBY INTERNAZIONALE Saturday, 23 January 2021 06:57
    LEONARDO GHIRALDINI ANNUNCIA IL RITIRO DAL RUGBY INTERNAZIONALE Saturday, 23 January 2021 06:57 There are no translations available. “RINGRAZIO FAMIGLIA, ALLENATORI, COMPAGNI, TIFOSI: E’ STATO UN VIAGGIO MERAVIGLIOSO” Roma - Leonardo Ghiraldini esce dalla storia ed entra nella leggenda del rugby italiano. Il tallonatore più presente di tutti i tempi in maglia azzurra, 107 caps con la Nazionale, scrive la parola fine su una delle carriere internazionali più prestigiose in novant’anni di storia del nostro rugby, annunciando il ritiro dal palcoscenico dei test-match a 36 anni. Un ritiro che arriva a qualche mese di distanza da quello dal rugby giocato di Alessandro Zanni, compagno di infinite battaglie e di un numero inquantificabile di stanze d’albergo condivise con Calvisano, Benetton e Italrugby. Con l’addio del tallonatore padovano all’Italia si chiude idealmente un’epoca, quella della generazione di atleti nati nella prima metà degli Anni ’80 su cui mise gli occhi John Kirwan e che trovarono poi in Berbizier prima, in Nick Mallett poi gli allenatori della maturità sportiva: Sergio Parisse, lo storico capitano dell’Italia oggi al Tolone, è il solo ancora in attività del gruppo che volò a Marsiglia sul finire dell’estate 2007 per la Rugby World Cup francese che avrebbe posto le basi per il lustro successivo. Ripercorrere la carriera di Leonardo Ghiraldini vuol dire andare ben oltre le centosette partite in maglia Italia. Dal debutto sotto Pierre Berbizier a Tokyo contro il Giappone nel 2006, un susseguirsi di emozioni e ricordi. Diciassette volte capitano della Nazionale, inclusi l’intero Torneo delle 6 Nazioni 2010 ed i primi due turni della Rugby World Cup inglese del 2015, la maglia dei Barbarians, le esperienze da protagonista in due dei Club più prestigiosi d’Europa, Leicester Tigers e Stade Toulousain, dopo lo scudetto vinto - da giovanissimo capitano - con il giallonero di Calvisano e una serie di stagioni ad altissimo livello del PRO12 (oggi PRO14) con la Benetton, un totale di quattro edizioni della Rugby World Cup a cui ha preso parte.
