Alex Corbisiero height - How tall is Alex Corbisiero?

Corbisiero left Northampton Saints in January 2016 due to an injury plagued time at the club.

After announcing his intentions in January 2016 to take a year out from Rugby, Corbisiero was an analyst for NBC Sports coverage of the Aviva Premiership alongside with Leigh Diffey. While guest hosting on the Rugby Pod podcast in early 2018 Alex acknowledged it was unlikely he would be returning to professional rugby.

On 16 January 2013, Corbisiero left London Irish to sign for Northampton Saints for the 2013/14 season. In 2014 Corbisiero played as a replacement as Northampton beat Saracens to win the Premiership final.

Injury ruled him out of the 2013 Six Nations championship, and seemed to have ruled him out of initial selection for the British and Irish Lions squad for the 2013 British and Irish Lions tour to Australia. However, on 5 June, he replaced Irish prop Cian Healy after Healy was injured during the second tour match against Western Force. Corbisiero started the first Test against Australia on Saturday 22 June. Corbisiero scored the Lions' first try in their victorious third test against Australia which clinched the series. Unforunately, further injuries to shoulder, neck and back dogged his career, and he played only two more international matches, against Argentina in November 2013, then one more appearance two years later, coming off the subs bench against France in August 2015, in a warm-up match for the 2015 World Cup. Recurrent injuries prevented him being part of the World Cup squad.

Corbisiero made his senior debut for England against Italy on 12 February 2011 after Andrew Sheridan was ruled out of the match with a back injury. He went on to feature in four of England's five tests as they won the Six Nations Championship, with injury ruling Sheridan out for the rest of the tournament. Corbisiero represented England at the Rugby World Cup 2011. He was also a regular in the team during 2012, both in the Six Nations championship (four victories and one defeat) and in the summer and autumn internationals (including two losses to South Africa and a victory over New Zealand.)

Corbisiero was eligible to represent either England, Italy, Ireland or the USA at senior level, but cast his lot with England when he made his debut for the England Saxons against Russia at the 2010 Churchill Cup.

Corbisiero was a used replacement in the final of the 2008–09 Guinness Premiership.

In 2008 Corbisiero was a member of the England under-20 team that won the grand slam and reached the final of the 2008 IRB Junior World Championship.

Corbisiero has represented England at Under-18, Under-19 and Under-20 level. He competed for England at the 2007 Under 19 Rugby World Championship.

Corbisiero was first educated at Hall School Wimbledon, then Reed's School, finally graduating from ACS Cobham International School in 2006, where he was also captain of the school's Cougars rugby team. He studied at the London School of Economics. He is currently studying for a BA in History at Birkbeck, University of London which he started in 2009.

He joined the London Irish Academy in August 2005, making his professional club debut against London Wasps in the 2008 London Double Header.
