    Yes, Sione Tuipulotu is a very underrated player. Strong both in attack and defense, and is a great leader of men as well. Bundee Aki was outstanding during the 6N but was a shadow of his former self during the autumn internationals.

    Damian de Allende is bubbling under. Incredible strength but relatively slow in defense.

    If Jordie can get nominated off a couple of good games then O'Aki should be good for a nomination based on the 6N.

    Len Ikitau had the best performances at 12 all year. He and DDL head and shoulders above everyone else.

    Nominating Jordie Barrett is a fucking joke surely.

    When he played well, the All Blacks looked at their best.

    When was that? Not in 2024

    @Tim I think he can be included in a poll, however anyone that votes for him needs to be vilified....

    Not a great year for 2nd 5s.

    I'm nominating Jordie Barrett. There a still lots of rough edges to his game, but what a skill set! When he played well, the All Blacks looked at their best.

    What skill set does he have that no one else does ?

    Not taking the piss, genuine question.

    All I can recall him doing is cart the ball up, not as effectively as other 12s mentioned above.
