Scott Higginbotham Bio
Scott Higginbotham caught the eye with a series of strong ball-carrying displays in the Queensland
Reds side. Primarily used as a blindside flanker, Higginbotham leaves nothing on the park and is one of the team's most committed performers. He made his debut for
Australia in 2010 against
France.
