Mauro Bergamasco

Mauro Bergamasco wins my respect through sheer versatility and commitment. A natural open-side flanker regarded as one of Italy's finest, he was willing to take international caps on the wing and even start at scrum-half, a famously rocky experiment that still sits in the record books. I love that imperfection; it shows a player who put the team's needs above his own comfort. At 185 cm he covered the field with relentless energy through a long career. The willingness to fail in an unfamiliar role rather than refuse it speaks to real character. Bergamasco strikes me as a wholehearted competitor, and those are the ones I cherish most.
