David Lemi

Weighing 75 kg and only 1.75m tall, he is one of the smaller professional rugby players. However, his electric pace and low centre of gravity enabled him to be the 2nd highest Premiership try scorer for the 2005-06 season; and top scorer in the 2006-07 season while playing for Bristol. He then had a stint at Wasps, Glasgow and Worcester before rejoining Bristol.
