2. Johnny Sexton (Ireland)
A quad injury has ravaged his World Cup so far, playing just 97 minutes of rugby, and it’s affected his and Ireland’s performances for sure. Sexton is the man to get Ireland firing again, but he needs to get back to his best as quickly as possible. His importance to the team is clear as, without him, they have no chance.
