Career Biography
Ellis Genge is the most destructive scrummager in English rugby and one of the most charismatic characters in the sport. The Bristol-born loosehead prop combines raw power with surprising mobility, and his carrying in the tight channels has become a signature weapon for both club and country.
Genge's journey from the streets of Knowle West in Bristol to the England captaincy is one of rugby's most compelling stories.
