The legendary Craig Dowd has become one of the most respected and feared front row players in the world. His raw power, strength and experience have made him one of the side's most important players.
The 33-year-old New Zealander notched up 59 caps for the All Blacks and holds the record, alongside Olo Brown and Sean Fitzpatrick, of the longest serving front row unit in Test history, playing 35 matches together for the All Blacks
His 2002 /2003 season has started in awesome form with the New Zealander scoring two tries against Saracens in September.
Dowd is defiantly the corner stone of the pack and worth his weight in gold
