Profile
Owen Franks made his international bow as a replacement against Italy in 2009, capping his first year of Super 14 rugby with his first All Blacks jersey.
Having followed his brother, Ben, through the ranks at Canterbury and later the Crusaders he got his first taste of Tri-Nations competition in a lively performance as a replacement in a victory over Australia at Eden Park in 2009.
