Ciaran Hearn

Coming out of Conception Bay South in Newfoundland to play at two Rugby World Cups is a story that earns my full respect. That remote, frigid Canadian island doesn't exactly funnel players onto the global stage, so Ciaran Hearn's rise speaks to real grit. What I like even more is that he kept going, suiting up for Old Glory DC in Major League Rugby well into a long career. I have a weakness for athletes who keep putting their bodies on the line as the years add up, and Hearn strikes me as exactly that kind of relentless, no-nonsense competitor worth following.
