Joseph Oliver Launchbury (born 12 April 1991) is an English rugby union lock.

He retained his place for the match against New Zealand as England recorded their first win over the All Blacks since 2003.

After Harlequins failed to offer him a professional contract aged 18, he left the club and joined then National League 2 South side Worthing for the 2009–10 season.

His performances at Worthing under Will Green, then head coach and former Wasps player, saw him recommended to his former club once again under the stewardship of renowned coach Bobby Walsh.

Launchbury's first international experience came as part of the England under-18 side which finished runners-up in the 2009 European Under-18 Rugby Union Championship.

2010

He played in several A League matches for Wasps and, after a spell training with the in South Africa, did enough to be given a full-time contract from July 2010.

Having played the first half of the season for the A team and out on loan, Launchbury made his Wasps' debut on 30 January 2011 in the Anglo-Welsh Cup against Harlequins as a replacement, scoring a try in a 38–13 defeat.

His first Premiership appearance came the following month against Leicester Tigers and he remained a fixture in the side for the rest of the season.

In May 2011 he was named the club's Young Player and Academy Player of the Season and was rewarded with a new three-year contract.

In 2011–12, Launchbury's first full season with Wasps, Launchbury made 15 senior team appearances despite missing four months of the season after injuring his ankle in October.

He returned to the side in February as a replacement but went into the starting XV for the next game and was ever-present as Wasps retained their Premiership status.

All but one of his appearances over the season were made as a blindside flanker despite playing in the second row for most of the previous year.

Launchbury graduated from the Academy at the end of the season, moving up to the senior squad alongside several other England youth internationals.

He moved up to the under-20s in 2011, making his debut as a replacement against Italy in the Under-20s Six Nations.

Despite not being included in the original squad he was elevated to the starting line-up for the following game and earned the Man of the Match award against Ireland as England won the Grand Slam.

He was selected for the Junior World Championship in June the same year and started every game as England reached the final, eventually losing 33–22 to New Zealand.

He was named England Player of the Tournament by his teammates.

In 2012 Launchbury was called up to the senior squad for the tour of South Africa.

He played in the uncapped game against the Barbarians at Twickenham but an injury picked up in training forced him to return home.

The following month he was included in the Saxons squad and in November was called into the England training camp for the Autumn internationals as injury cover for Wasps teammate Tom Palmer.

He made his Test debut days later as a replacement against Fiji and was promoted to the starting line-up against Australia.
