Lorenzo Bruno Nero Dallaglio OBE (born 10 August 1972), known as Lawrence Dallaglio, is an English retired rugby union player, former captain of England, and 2016 inductee of the World Rugby Hall of Fame.^[1]

Dallaglio played as a flanker or number eight for London Wasps and never played for another club, having arrived at Sudbury as a teenager. Playing in all three positions in the back row, he won 85 caps for England, and was part of the team that won the 2003 World Cup. He is one of a very small number of players to have won both the Rugby World Cup and Sevens World Cup.^[2] He went on three tours with the British & Irish Lions, winning three caps.

Dallaglio now regularly works as a pundit on television rugby coverage and on radio.
