Fantasy Six Nations final picks tips
Louis Lynagh
The Italy wing has waited patiently for his first international cap. Overlooked by England, he switched his allegiance to Italy and made his debut against Scotland.
He contributed to Italy’s first home win in 11 years, adding a try and valuable running metres. Italy are against Wales this weekend and could be on for another upset.
Ben Earl
England number eight Ben Earl has been one of the highlights of the team’s championship. He became a standout player for his side at the 2023 Rugby World Cup and now he has cemented his name on the team sheet.
His performance in round four gave him 72 points, the most generated by any player in the championship. He scored a try, beat eight defenders, was Player of the Match and carried 145 metres.
Nolann Le Garrec
The France scrum-half has been involved in all of the team’s Six Nations matches but against Wales he got his starting chance. He took the opportunity with both hands. His performance included a no-look back pass, a try and a Player of the Match award.
He scored 33 points in the fourth round, the highest amount of any scrum-half in the competition so far.
