        Finn Russell

        Such fun to watch. Bonkers that Scotland don't always pick him.

            If you want to be entertained, then Finn Russell is this year’s Carlos Spencer. If you want to win a game, Ntamack is this years Dan Carter.

              i fucking hate Sexton. Hate him. He's a moaning, whinging diver. He's a 37 year old man who is called Johny

              But holy shit that bloke can control a game. Still has a surprisingly effective running game when it's on. He's the key to Ireland, and Ireland are really fucking good.

                Gotta be Sexton. Complete player and certainly no Andrew Merhtens when it comes to being physical.

                  Yep would second that, Ireland are lost without him, he's one of the smartest players in the world

                    Looks exactly like the sort of player who could run at gaps and served an apprenticeship behind Ronan O'Gara, with some defensive steel.

                      Sexton for me as he is the master of Ireland's game, the Nr.1 team in the world. Great boot, good defence, clever in attack.

                        Ntamack slightly ahead of Sexton for me.

                          Ntamack was outstanding during the Six Nations but was rather meh in November (because of a late injury recovery).

                            Sexton is the biggest fluffybunny around, but boy can he control a game. Fin Russel for personal brilliance
