No prop came close to McGrath in meters made or carries. 5 More tackles than Evans and a turnover makes him by far the best loosened.

Jonny Gray played 5 so not in contention for me. Chateris was close but only carried once (for 6 meters) but did make 3 more tackles. Gray gets it on greater involvement all round.

RBS: Taulupe Faletau BBC: Sergio Parisse
Probably the hardest position to choose. Billy Vunipola gave a MOM performance and Jamie Heaslip did a lot of unseen work. Both Faletau and Parisse scored tires. Faletau tackled hard (1 more than Heaslip) but didn’t give much forward movement. Parisse was huge in attack and a drop goal away from winning it.
