Ross Ford Bio
Ross Ford has won a reputation as one of the best hookers in Europe. Ford signed for
Edinburgh in 2007 after the disbandment of his former club the Border Reivers. He made his debut for
Scotland in the 2004
Autumn International against
Australia. Strong performances for his country during the
Six Nations in 2009 earned Ford a call-up to the 2009
British and Irish Lions squad. Ford came on as a replacement after 37 minutes in the Lions' 29-8 victory over
South Africa in the third test. Ford marked his World Cup debut in 2007 with a try against
Portugal.
