Six Nations team of the week: Ireland and Scotland impress in round one
There were three away victories in round one of the 2023 Guinness Six Nations as Ireland, Scotland and France all claimed bonus-point wins.
Here are our picks from the opening weekend...
15. Hugo Keenan (Ireland)
"The courage on that kid, how he got up for those high balls and never looked like dropping one. And he always looked dangerous with ball in hand as well."
Andy Farrell was effusive in his praise for Keenan, who was rock-solid in the air against the Wales and a great counter-attacking threat. He also made a vital intervention to deny Rio Dyer a certain try on 11 minutes.
14. Ange Capuozzo (Italy)
