Jacques Cabero

Santiago Cavero, known as Jacques Cabero (Labastide-Saint-Pierre 13 May 1947 – Villelongue-dels-Monts, 15 March 2017), was a French rugby league player who played as hooker or prop.

His performances in club allowed him to represent France between 1968 and 1972, disputing notably the 1970 Rugby League World Cup.

After his rugby union debuts at Canohés, then at Argelès, he joined the junior team of XIII Catalan in 1966.

At first-grade level, along with Francis Mas and Raymond Rébujent, he formed the formidable XIII Catalan forwards line and won the French Championship title in 1969, followed by the French Cup in the same year, accompanied that time by Pierre Hors.

He then joined Pia and added a new trophy to his cabinet by winning the Lord Derby Cup in 1975 against Marseille.
