Still one of Australia's key weapons, Roff is a prolific try-scorer from either the wing position or at full-back, although it is the number 15 jersey he is being tipped to wear in the World Cup.
He is the master of the unpredictable where his deft touches with the ball in hand or with the boot can destroy a defence.
Roff made his Test debut during the 1995 World Cup, and has since earned 76 caps for Australia.
Apart from a one-year stint in France when he helped Biarritz to the championship, Roff is a key member of the ACT Brumbies Super 12 side, and is their all-time leading try scorer.
Has missed Australia's last few Tests before the World Cup due to rib cartilage damage, but if he can steer clear of injury he is a certain starter for Eddie Jones' team.
