World Cup muscle: Jason White
Scotland blind-side Jason White
Height: 1.96m (6ft 5in)
Weight: 117kg (18st 6lb)
Age: 29 Caps: 58

It is appropriate the big-tackling White grew up in the Granite City of Aberdeen, because he gives every impression of being hewn from the notoriously hard rock.

Scotland suffered without White's ferocious defence last season after he was sidelined by a knee injury, but he has fought his way back to fitness and will be the talismanic figure in the Scottish pack.

Legendary former coach Jim Telfer said that White was, pound for pound, the hardest tackler he had worked with.
