4. Jonny Hill (England) – A solid outing from Hill, who earned his hard-fought pick and go try in the first half. Seems to be getting better with every cap he wins.
5. Paul Willemse (France) – Another second-rower who threw his body around on defence, the French forward finished the game in Dublin with 17 tackles.
BACK-ROW:
6. Charles Ollivon (France) – We’ve shifted the slipper to the blindside to accommodate him in the team. As well as scoring the opening try, he made a stunning match high 20 tackles in defence.
7. Hamish Watson (Scotland) – Another outstanding display from Scotland’s pick-pocket in chief as he again made himself a menace at the breakdown.
8. Taulupe Faletau (Wales) – You name it,he did it. A commanding contribution at the back of Wales’ scrum, and he also shone in the loose.
