Biography
The most apologetic and virile man in OUAFC history will always be remembered by those who were present for his remarkably out of character and completely unprovoked verbal attack on then captain Mark Addley during an away fixture at Derby in 2005. An outstanding range of passing is well complimented by his good working in proving that any squad member could indeed be assassinated whilst training in the Parks by a US military sniper at the top of the Keble chapel spire. A true gent, except for the that night in Cali when he allowed intruders to steal Doree's phone and then attempt to drown Hazzard.
Rigby retired unexpectedly at his peak in 2006 to pursue a career in academia, but a return to the Exeter college team was short-lived as he has been persuaded out of retirement by Mickey Lewis, who once beat him for pace in a Centaurs training session circa. 2003.
Rigby is the blues vice-captain for the 2007/08 season. He has been christened "Garry" by new coach Martin Keown.
Rigby is incapable of pronoucing the first name of Blues teammate "Leon Farr", opting for "Lay-on" instead. This mispronunciation has continued for so long that the fresher has been forced to legally change his name to "Layon Farr". Rigby is, as usual, apologetic.
