Who has advanced their claim to select British and Irish lions? Sky Sports cracks the figures for the 3 of the Six Nations to discover …
While the debate rumbles around certain selection areas for Andy Farrell, others already look sunk into the stone.
James Lowe looks from a test of test nailed, but who will be held on the other wing when the lions come out against the Wallabies in Brisbane on July 19? GOOD, Duhan van der Merwe Mount one as strong as any other.
Van der Merwe presented its unplayable qualities with a ruthless display of attack force which, very almost – and should undoubtedly have – led the Scotland to a fifth Calcutta Calcutta record.
The 29-year-old resumed his role as chief of the Tormentor of England, haunting the men of Steve Barthwick with his record for the seventh Calcutta Cup after having implemented Huw Jones’ in the first half.
No competitor of Lions has no longer recorded discharges or assists, or assists, than Van der Merwe in the Tour 3 of the Six Nations, while only the teammate Blair Kinghorn exceeded it for the transported meters and the meters won.
Scotland would ultimately leave the Allianz stadium empty-handed, but, by a gentleness day, Van der Merwe left with its massively improved lions references.
No player presents the in -depth force available to Ireland Jack Conan.
The consecutive champions of the Six Nations were without Captain Caelan Doris for their trip from Round 3 to Cardiff, but Conan once again proved to be a more assistant on this subject.
Jack Conan put Ireland on the way to victory with the opening of opening against Wales
His opening test made it possible to rank the highest for Ireland as they kept their hopes of the Grand Salm alive with a triple victory of the crown 27-18 on Wales.
The relocation of Doris, a leading competitor for the Lions captain, looks like a major challenge, but the impressive, impactful and coherent performances of Conan should at least secure his position as a tour.
For those who think that a 15th consecutive record defeat would end the hopes of any Welsh contingent making the Lions team, think again!
Throughout one of the darkest periods in the history of Welsh rugby, Jac MorganPerformances and leadership have provided a glimmer of hope – a light that leads a nation in the dark.
He led the exciting performance on Saturday against Ireland, and although it was able to end with defeat, the Welsh Rugby and his captain were victorious.
Jac Morgan led from the front in the defeat of the morale of Wales against Ireland
Only Rory Darge (55) struck more rucks than the 47 hit against Ireland by Morgan, who was the second highest ball striker (12) on Tour 3 and finished in the top five for finished plated (14 ).
Morgan also crossed for a test and presented his ability to beat the defenders with a line break against Ireland – another recall that he has the main characteristic of a Lions player: the ability to play under pressure.
The lateral back Blair Kinghorn dazzled in attack against England
If Ireland’s victory over Wales by the injury was not bad enough, the great rear Hugo Keenan had to look at his main rival for the Lions 15 shirt seized the opportunity in his absence.
Van der Merwe rightly claimed the player of the match distinction in Twickenham, but he was supported by an equally impressive performance of Blair Kinghorn.
No lions hopes have no longer made line (3) or transportation breaks (22), won the ball further (183m), or made more than meters of gain (128m) than the back of Toulouse , who did everything in his power and yet was still unable to prevent Scotland from giving up the Calcutta Cup.
Kinghorn exploits from the rear of the rear were equaled by the namesake Blair Murray of Wales, which beat the most defenders (11) on the turn 3 of the six nations, classified joint for the assists (1), the second spouse for breaks (2) and the third for the meters won (78m ) to secure its place among the top five scorers.
