Ilkka Tuominen

Like a Finnish lightning bolt, this assertive full-back throws himself into every tackle with a ferocity that leaves opponents trembling. He still recalls the day he bulldozed a referee during a full-tilt sprint and nonchalantly advised him to find a better angle next time. Despite his searing pace and immense strength, his defensive positioning can be erratic, forcing him to rely on pure grit to recover from his own occasional lapses.
