5. Marcus Smith

One fan wrote: “He has potential to be immense, but is still lacking in a lot of areas and as shown during the Six Nations. He isn’t as good at game management as England’s other options.”

“I’m not digging how far Smith plays behind the gain line. He’s good in broken play but needs to play way flatter to be rated as highly as he is,” another added.
