Tomás Lavanini

I have a soft spot for Argentine forwards, and Tomás Lavanini fits the mold perfectly. A lock for the Highlanders and Los Pumas, born in Buenos Aires in 1993, he plays the kind of unglamorous, foundational role that wins matches without making highlight reels. South American rugby carries a particular fire, and you sense it in how locks like him commit to the grind of set pieces and collisions. I respect players who do the heavy lifting so flashier teammates can shine. Lavanini, to me, is exactly that sort of dependable engine room presence.
