Hosts Dallen Stanford & Robin MacDowell are joined by legend Santiago Gomez Cora for #RugbyHive Episode 21.

Gomez Cora represented Argentina for a decade on the HSBC World Rugby Sevens Series, scoring 1,178 points, and for many years led the world in tries scored. Today is tied 4th highest try scorer in history with 230 alongside Blitzbok Seabelo Senatla.

Gomez Cora won the Los Angeles 7s in 2004 and then captained his side to glory in San Diego in 2009. Gomez Cora played in two Sevens Rugby World Cups: Hong Kong in 2005 and finalists in Dubai 2009. Currently he is preparing for the Olympic Games in Tokyo, as the Head Coach for the Pumas 7s team.

In this episode we track how the speedster elevated himself to international rugby, playing alongside his brother, why he developed the chip and chase as his trademark move, and how his career on the Sevens Series evolved into coaching his country.

We hear how he commentated in his second language (English) at the 2019 Rugby World Cup, why he lost 4kg in Japan, and his love of being at home with his son.

We hope you enjoy and follow us on these platforms!
