9. Antoine Dupont (France): “Superb first clearance kick to touch but he really just does everything right, the tackles and the flair. Of course he sliced through to score when France needed him most.” – Telegraph
Can’t stop playing that conversion celebration from Paolo Garbisi. He’d won only one of his 17 Italy Tests (v Uruguay) before nailing that kick to defeat Wales today. Pure, overwhelming emotion, that’s what sport is all about. #WALvITA#SixNations#GuinnessSixNationspic.twitter.com/oZ4pU3KV7L
1. Pierre Schoeman (Scotland): “Created carnage in the Irish defence as a ball-carrier and matched Tadhg Furlong at scrum time,” – Rugby Pass
2. Dan Sheehan (Ireland): “An outstanding performance in all aspects of the game from his lineout throwing – one picked off – to his carrying, beating defenders through footwork or power with equal facility. He capped a superb game with a try.” – Irish Times
3. Uini Atonio (France): “Fine performance at tighthead from a consistent performer throughout this championship. Had Genge’s number at the scrum.” – Guardian
