Thanks for sharing - enjoyed that!

Good one. Harry always gave his all for Tigers. We were gutted when he had to stop so it's pleasing that he is happy and fulfilled in retirement.

I think, but for the injury, he would have been considered one of the great 9s in world rugby.

He had the misfortune to gain his international caps in a shambolic England side and was a shadow of his former self after the knee injury.

is there any video footage of Corry vs Dallaglio as referred in that interview, I’ve seen the pictures

“I would love to see Tigers with more Leicester people playing for them. You get a lot of people that come and stay for a year or so and then go elsewhere. Maybe that’s the nature of professional sport these days. I would like to see Leicester people playing for Leicester or only-one-club men as it was in the early 2000s.” Harry Ellis

What an article from such a modest man. He was always a favourite of mine and injury is a cruel master. One of the best Tigers 9s without a doubt.

Enjoy your career and look forward to seeing Ellis Jnr in a 9 shirt at Welford Riad

A top player for Tigers, badly let down by being played when seriously injured, when rest and good treatment may have prolonged his career.
