Fin Baxter
Fin Baxter started his rugby journey at the age of five at Cobham RFC and has gone on to represent Harlequins more than 60 times. He progressed through the England age grade system having made his England U18 debut in 2018, as well as captaining the U20 Men in 2021. An excellent scrummager, Baxter began his career as a tighthead before moving across the front row. Working with the likes of Joe Marler and Adam Jones, Baxter has cemented his position as one of the most promising props in the Premiership and earned himself a start in England A’s 91-5 win over Portugal in February 2023. He then stepped up to the Senior men's side, making his debut against New Zealand during the Summer Tour and going on to play in the Autumn Nations Series. He was recently selected in Steve Borthwick's squad for the 2025 Guinness Men's Six Nations.

The props prop the hooker on both sides in the front row, push against the opposition props and anchor the scrum. The loose-head prop is on the hooker’s left, his head outside the scrum when it engages, the tighthead packs down to the hooker’s right on the inside, shoring up the scrum with strength.
