So much of Scotland's forward play revolves around Grimes that if he is a key cog in Ian McGeechan's machine.
The 17th Scot to pass 50 caps - he reached the landmark against Wales in August - Grimes is built like a brick outhouse with the power to match.
Allying a pheonmenal work-rate with agility and pace in the loose, Grimes is just about the ideal mould for a lock.
Having made his debut for Scotland six years ago, he has rarely been out of the senior squad since and remains vital to Scotland's hopes.
