	Robbie Kydd Robbie Kydd (born 19 January 1982) is a rugby union footballer who plays at centre for Rugby Calvisano. Career Versatile back Kydd was one of Budge Pountney's earliest signings for Northampton Saints but the club were forced out of the deal when Kydd suffered what could have been a career-ending knee injury in training while at his former club Saracens. Saints, however, took their duty of care very seriously and actively helped to rehabilitate the former New Zealand U21s player. Kydd always said he would be back for Christmas 2005 and he made his Saints debut just a few weeks over that deadline at a time when Saints were desperately short of centres. He played for more than 60 minutes on his debut against Worcester and helped Saints onto their first league win over their Midlands rivals since the Warriors were promoted. Kydd made six appearances following that memorable day and is a useful man to have around as he covers fly-half, centre and full-back and has a mean goal-kickin ...
