1. Starting out

Marler started his career at Haywards Heath RFC in Sussex where he played in the same side as fellow England international Billy Twelvetrees.

After joining the Quins academy in 2008, the prop spent some time on loan to Esher and Worthing

3. Lions scorer

Despite failing to cross the whitewash in his 66 caps since making his England debut in 2012, he did score in one of his two appearances for the British & Irish Lions during the 2017 tour to New Zealand.

4. Nickname

He's been nicknamed Croissant. In his own words, it's because: “The boys think I have a nose that looks like a French pastry.”
