I have always loved the Stade Rugby Calendars and DVD's, and although many online have complained they are going downhill, I still usually find something, or someone I like. I was intrigued this year by 19 year old Alexandre Flanquart. Even though it is nice when old favorites return, it is also nice to see new players. Alexandre stood out to me for a variety of reasons. Being so young, he has a thin build which contrasts many of the other players. He also has an amazing face with strong features which combine beautifully. It is also very hot to see some of the players, nervous about the photoshoot, and given this was his first year, Alexandre did appear nervous. The end result however, was a great photo. I have not been able to find out much online about Alexandre except that he started in rugby at the age of 5 and is looking to continue and become a pro player. That is good news, as it means we might get to see him in the calendars for years to come.
