Joe Marler Bio

Joe Marler successfully forged a career as one of the best props in world rugby. Throughout his highly successful career, he made almost 300 appearances for Harlequins and won nearly 100 England caps.

Born on 7 July 1990, Joe Marler started playing rugby union at age 11, when he featured for the Eastbourne Sharks. He quickly excelled at the sport and was almost immediately drafted into representative sides. During his formative years, he played for Sussex at the under 14-18 levels and he was even asked to represent London & the South East in 2006.

In 2008, Joe Marler joined the Harlequins academy. After a couple of brief loan spells at Esher and Worthing, Marler became a staple of the Harlequins first team. By 2011, he was featuring regularly and he played a crucial role in helping the side capture their first ever Premiership title in 2011-12.

Marler stayed with the team for the entirety of his domestic career and even took over the club captaincy in 2014-15 while Chris Robshaw focused on his England commitments. By the time he hung up his boots in late 2024, he’d made 286 appearances for the club. Today, he’s rightfully regarded as a Harlequins legend. 

Such was his success for Harlequins that Joe Marler represented England 95 times between 2012 and 2024. During his time with the national side, he won the Six Nations three times and played in the 2019 Rugby World Cup final. In addition, Marler was even called into the British and Irish Lions squad for the 2017 tour of New Zealand. However, he did not play in a test on the tour.

Joe Marler retired from all forms of rugby in 2024. He now regularly works as a pundit and hosts a successful podcast.
