4. Matthieu Jalibert (France)
- Age: 22
- Position: Fly-half
- Club: Bordeaux-Begles
Woodward said: “The injured Romain Ntamack has had rave reviews but Jalibert is also a magnificent talent. He nearly guided a massively understrength France to a win over England in December and now has a chance to shine alongside the world’s best scrum-half in Antoine Dupont.”
