Bazalgette dreaming of shot at big time

Rugby is “a family business” for the fly-half, with both his grandfather Richard and great uncle John donning the famous quarters of Harlequins during the late 1950s and early 60s.

The 25-year-old’s shown he’s full of motivation and ambition, recovering from two serious leg injuries last season to battle for the top of the Championship’s points standings.

Bazalgette told The Rugby Paper: “I’ve always been a Harlequins fans through my grandfather and his brother, and that remains the childhood dream, but just getting a chance in the top flight would be a dream.

“I’m really happy playing at Hartpury, I’m in a good place and enjoying my rugby more than I have in a long time.

“I’m not actively seeking to move, if I was to stay at Hartpury and play 100 games then I’d be absolutely buzzing.
