#3. Joe Carpenter (Sale Sharks)
Planet Rugby: ” For the first 60 minutes he was probably the best player on the field. Carpenter caught pretty much every high ball and was so dangerous on the counter.
“Surely Steve Borthwick will be calling ahead of England’s mid-year games”
#4. Ted Hill (Bath RFC)
Rugby Pass: “The glue of the Bath back row. His 12th-minute try set the tone, making a meaty break and then having the patience to stay wide and get a second touch. His interventions counted.”
#5. Ollie Lawrence (Bath RFC)
Rugby Pass: “Excellent. Supreme offload in the lead-up to the Beno Obano try followed by a try-saving tackle on Tom O’Flaherty.”
