as of 14 November 2011.Nikki Walker (born 5 March 1982 in Aberdeen) is a rugby union footballer who plays on the wing for the Ospreys and Scotland. Walker has cemented a regular starting place with The Ospreys at the Liberty Stadium. He and opposite-wing Shane Williams have created an exciting "Little and Large" combination that utilises their respected abilities. This form caused a recall to the Scotland squad and he made his first appearance for Scotland in over 4 years as a replacement against Wales in the Six Nations 2007. He also started for Scotland against France, 4 weeks later, and scored a try in the 7th minute.He then scored his next Try against Canada in the 2009 Autumn Test in Aberdeen, repeating this again this time against Samoa in the 2010 Autumn Test. He then scored his first Murryfield try for 4 years against Italy in the 2011 6 Nations Match which Scotland went on to win giving Italy the Wooden Spoon
A modified version of the Automatic's "Monster" record can be heard sung from the Liberty Stadium crowd each time Walker scores a try in the form, "What's that coming over the hill? It's Nikki Walker, It's Nikki Walker!"
