115 kg Matt Banahan is a converted second row forward who uses his massive frame to great effect whether playing in the centre or on the wing. He began his career at Bath Rugby and managed to score 10 tries in the 2007/08 season, leaving him second in the rankings for that year. Following exposure to international rugby with the sevens and Saxons sides, Banahan made his senior debut for England in June 2009 against Argentina, scoring a try and winning the man of the match accolade in the process.
