Chris Robshaw re-signs with San Diego Legion
By Ian Cameron
Former England captain Chris Robshaw has re-signed with San Diego Legion for the 2022 MLR season.
Robshaw's first season with the team was curtailed by injury, as the flanker dislocated his shoulder twice within the span of his first three games.
Robshaw made the move to San Diego after a remarkable 16-years with Harlequins. Capped 66 times by England, Robshaw was hoping made an impact in the fledgling league but it looks like his season could be over.
The 6'2, 110kg loose-forward made his Quins' first-team debut in 2005 having developed through the Harlequins Academy and went on to make over 250 appearances for the West London club. He is a two-time Premiership Player of the Year winner and scored in Harlequins’ famous Premiership Final victory over Leicester Tigers in 2012.
The Redhill-born back rower was also a crucial part of England’s unbeaten 2016, playing in every match of the Six Nations Grand Slam, the 3-0 whitewash of Australia and the four Old Mutual Wealth Series wins.

500k registered players in SA are scoolgoers and 90% of them don't go on to senior club rugby. SA is fed by having hundreds upon hundreds of schools that play rugby - school rugby is an institution of note in SA - but as I say for the vast majority when they leave school that's it.
