Best, worst players for each Six Nations country so far

ENGLAND

Best: Jonny May – Definitely England’s best player. Both of his tries against France were exceptional and his work-rate in difficult conditions against Scotland was to be admired. Two tries and two assists so far.

Worst: Owen Farrell – At his best, which is most of the time, he is world class. In the first two games, he has been a million miles off that. Two simple knock-ons against France was followed up by a less than convincing display against Scotland


FRANCE

Best: Gregory Alldritt (France) – The talismanic number 8 leads the Six Nations in carries (31), has made more ground than any other forward (177 metres) and is also one of the top tacklers (30).

Worst: Virimi Vakatawa – Following his move to centre, the powerhouse 27-year-old came into the tournament surrounded by hype. Vakatawa missed the Italy game, but against England, despite playing 80 minutes, he made just three carries, makign four metres. Added to this, he also coughed up a turnover and missed a couple of tackles.
