Mauro Bergamasco (born 1 May 1979) is an Italian rugby union footballer. He predominantly plays as an open-side flanker, although his versatility means has also played a number of international games on the wing, and started at scrum-half in an infamously error-prone performance. He is considered to be one of Italy's best players being world class in his preferred position. Mirco Bergamasco (born 23 February 1983) is an Italian rugby union footballer. He primarily plays centre, presently with Parisian club Racing Métro in the French Top 14, and internationally with Italy. Before joining Racing for the 2010--11 season, he had spent seven seasons with the other (and, in recent years, more prominent) Paris club Stade Français. Born in Padua, Bergamasco is the son of Arturo and the younger brother of Mauro Bergamasco, both Italian internationals. He made his international debut against France in the 2002 Six Nations, having previously appeared against an All-Star XV in a non-cap international. He established himself as a regular in the Azzurri side under John Kirwan, but suffered a jaw injury during the 2003 World Cup in Australia, and was forced to miss all but two of Italy's games -- spoiling a great year which had seen him score three tries in the Six Nations. He is now playing alongside his brother for both club and country, having joined Stade Français in 2004. He switched to inside centre from the back three and was considered one of the stars of the 2006 Six Nations <b>...</b>
