NEW YORK, NY – This was a fun one. Sergio Parisse is star – a rock star in rugby. But he’s also a charismatic, charming and friendly guy that has a twinkle in his eye. He’s easy to talk to, especially about rugby. And he can do so in FOUR languages.

Some of the topics covered include:
-Keys for Italy vs Ireland
-Big Stage of Soldier Field
-Baffling Eddie Jones, Dylan Hartley, James Haskell at Twickenham
-Making a living at rugby in Paris

-Being Honorary NYRC member
Passing behind-the-back and through legs
-The Welsh player he looked up to
