Again, Picamoles is a good player but has he actually played that much this season. Faletau outplayed Picamoles in the Six nations and Duane has steamrolled his opposite number on all occasions except Kieran Read.

My choice is somewhat more difficult - since Lobbe did not play at 8 this year - hhe was on the flank in virtually all the games he played. I would have said Leguizamon should be the one on the list:-
1 Reid
2 Vermeulen
3 Leguizamon
4 Faletau
5 Heaslip

Can't say I have seen a whole lot of Picamoles....but what I saw was quite brilliant.

Spot on Moz, the guy is so strong, in the Bismark mould.......could not believe the French coach dropped him.
