#3. Billy Vunipola
Mail Online 5/10: “Always playing catch-up after suspension. Test rugby has moved on to more dynamic No 8s.”
Telegraph: “All the signs point to Vunipola leaving Saracens when his contract expires next summer to head abroad, therefore either putting his Test career on hold or potentially ending it forever. A couple of error-prone cameos in the semi-final were not the high note he deserved to go out on. Technically young enough to be involved in 2027.”
Replacement: Zach Mercer (Gloucester)
