WORLD CUP ITALY
Picture Palmer - powerful Kiwi. (Getty Images)

SCOTT PALMER

Born: 10.11.77
Height: 6ft 3in
Weight: 15st 10lb
Position: Flanker
Club: Treviso
Caps: 7
Points: 10

Yet another of the foreign-born players in the Italy squad, Palmer made his debut last November against Argentina.

Having impressed in that game - and the rest of the autumn internationals - the Kiwi has gone on to nail down his position in the Italy pack.

A typically powerful New Zealander, Palmer is strong in the scrum and equally adept in the loose with an eye for the try-line.
