Search29th January 2009 : Game Changers 9: Serge Blanco![]() Serge Blanco - one of the greatest ever fullbacks. One of the highlights of Blanco's career and indeed, one of the greatest Rugby World Cup tries came in the dying moments of the 1987 Semi-final between France and Australia Serge Blanco (born 31 August 1958 in Caracas, Venezuela) is a former rugby union footballer who played fullback for Biarritz Olympique and the French national side, gaining 93 caps, 81 of them at fullback. His alternative position was wing. Blanco was born in Caracas to a Venezuelan father and a Basque mother, but was raised in Biarritz, France. He made his international debut against South Africa at Newlands on 8 November 1980, which France lost 37-15. His elegant running style, creativity and inventive spirit epitomised the flamboyance for which French rugby is admired. Blanco is considered one of France's greatest players and also one of the best fullbacks in rugby history. He owes his popularity also to his fair conduct on the field.
