Six Nations awards 2022: France dominate top honours, Italy’s brilliance remembered and England disappoint
The French team was stacked full of ridiculous talent this tournament, but no player was better than Alldritt. The number eight carried the French attack on his back all tournament with a whopping 65 touches of the ball (for reference the next highest carrier was Stuart Hogg with 56). His reliability as a thumping carrier provided a brilliant platform from which the French backs could work from, allowing Antoine Dupont the time and space to execute. Along with fellow French back-rowers Francois Cros and Anthony Jelonch, Alldritt was also one of the best tacklers in the tournament whilst offering six turnovers won as well – tied for first overall.
