The best of the best.

We’re two rounds into the 2018 Six Nations championship with Ireland current top of the leaderboard. England though, are level on points with Joe Schmidt’s men with just a slight points difference currently separating them.

Wales are behind Eddie Jones’ men despite losing over the weekend, thanks to their two bonus-points. Scotland, France and Italy then make up the rest of the table in that order.

But which players have made the biggest contribution for their respective countries? Here are all the player stats so far after two rounds with thanks to OPTA.
