“Criminally underrated” – 5 most underrated players in world rugby right now

#4. Owen Farrell (England)

  • Age: 30
  • Position: Fly-half
  • Club: Saracens

People seem to have forgotten that he led England to the 2019 Rugby World Cup final and has won everything there is to possibly win with Saracens. A scholar of the game, which will likely see him head into coaching when he retires, Farrell will still have a key part to play for Eddie Jones men heading into the 2023 Rugby World Cup.

DID YOU KNOW? Farrell celebrates every point he scores by linking his index fingers together to make a ‘JJ’ sign, the Joining Jack salute, Joining Jack being a charity dedicated to the needs of sufferers of Duchenne muscular dystrophy
