#3. Alfie Barbeary (Wasps)
- Age: 20
- Position: Number 8
It’s not if, but when will the Wasps forward be unleashed by Eddie Jones. Selected for the 2021 Six Nations before injury struck, Barbeary has become the England bosses latest project player after he influenced the youngster to switch from hooker to the back-row.
Coventry Live: “Sale Sharks had clearly done their homework on the number eight and flew at him in the first half. But the 20-year-old didn’t let a few collisions that didn’t go his way set him back as he regularly made metres against a defence that was unrelenting.”
