Picture Taylor - known as 'Peter Perfect'.

MARK TAYLOR

Club: Llanelli Scarlets
Caps: 40
Points: 40

Taylor's nickname among his team-mates says everything about his preparation and attitude.

The Llanelli Scarlets centre is known as 'Peter Perfect', yet opponents treat him lightly at their peril.

He averages a point a game - a try every five - through his Test career and has captained Wales on two occasions, crossing for tries in both games.

Famed for scoring the first try at the Millennium Stadium, Taylor will hope his brand of tactically astute centre play sees him shine Down Under.
