Test debut: Spain, 2003

Strengths: With pace to burn, Emerick can catch defenders off-guard with his pace off the mark. His lethal sidestep often leaves opposition scratching their heads, while at 1.83 m (6' 0") tall and weighing in at 93 kg (14 st 9 lb) - he certainly is no pushover. One of the USA's senior players in the squad, and his experience will be vital.
Weaknesses: The dreaded up-and-under isn't every rugby player's cup of tea - Emerick is no exception. Perhaps his long locks get in the way?
Likely headline: 'Emerick side-steps axing after dropped ball'
