Bio
Dimitri Szarzewski is as renowned for his flowing locks as he is for his dynamic ball-carrying. The hooker emerged with Beziers before moving to Stade Francais in 2004, where he was a key element in the side's 2007 Top 14 victory. Szarzewski has an impressive try scoring rate for a front row player. Despite featuring in six of France's games at the 2007 World Cup, Szarzewski only started in one of them. His battle with Servat for the number two shirt this time around should be fascinating.
