Strengths: Lima is a ferocious tackler and formidable in defence - his nicknamed 'The Chiropractor' because of his back-breaking tackles on opponents. He is also key to Samoa's attacking prospects at the RWC as he has scored one-third of his career tries in the showpiece event.

Weaknesses: The rigours of Test rugby have taken a toll on Lima's body and he now lacks pace.

Likely headline: 'The Chiropractor is back'

Did you know: Lima is about to become the first player to feature in five Rugby World Cups.
