Picture Jenkins - nicknamed 'Melon'. (Getty Images)

GETHIN JENKINS

Born: 17.11.80
Height: 6ft 2in
Weight: 18st 10lb
Position: Prop
Club: Celtic Warriors
Caps: 10
Points: 0

One of the growing band of promising youngsters in the Wales pack, Jenkins has made the No 3 shirt his own in recent months with a string of fine displays.

The Celtic Warriors prop made a victorious Test debut against Romania and has since made 10 appearances at either loose-head or tight-head prop.

That versatility makes him a valuable member of the squad and as he learns with every game, he becomes a feared opponent around the world.

The man they call 'Melon' is a mobile prop who is dangerous in the loose as well as being a strong scrummager.
