Guilhem Guirado is a powerful hooker, who has racked up over 100 appearances for his club side
Perpignan, helping them to the Top14 title in 2009. His form in the 2010/11 Heineken Cup won him many plaudits. Guirado made his
France debut in 2008 against
Italy, but his presence on the international stage has been limited by the presence of Servat and Szarzewski.
