There are four England players in the RUCK Team of the Autumn Nations Series.
England, France and Ireland went unbeaten during the series and as a result 11 of the XV selected come from those three nations.
The rest of the team is made up of three Springboks and one Welshman while no Scots feature despite the men in blue winning three of their four games over the last month.
That means there is also no room for any All Blacks or Wallabies after they failed to set the world alight during their Northern Hemisphere tour.
Check out our full selection below.

- Jordie Barrett over Damian de Allende is far from being correct. The hype around Dupont is also overreaching, he's probably 4th in the world and has been since the 2023 WC. He also avoids certain matchups which is strange. The rest of the list is pretty good apart from minor subjective biases.JasonMarlow16-09-2026
