LIST: Top 5 Fantasy Rugby Players After Round One

It’s not surprising to see Blair Kinghorn sitting top of the individual Fantasy Rugby player standings after he scored a hat-trick in Scotland’s win against Italy. Kinghorn also contributed defensively, finishing with 12 tackles to his name, as he racked up 126.7 points for any Fantasy Rugby players who picked him in their team.

Wales were staring down the barrel at half-time against France as they went into the break 16-0 down, but they produced a stirring fightback to beat Le Bleus in Paris. And the man central to that turnaround in the second half was undoubtedly George North, who crossed the whitewash twice to get Warren Gatland’s side off to a winning start.

A brace from Henry Slade helped England kick off their Guinness Six Nations campaign with a memorable victory against defending champions Ireland.

He was the most expensive fullback in the game, but Stuart Hogg proved his worth with a fine individual performance for Scotland to beat Italy in Edinburgh.

The only forward to make the top five in the opening weekend, Mako Vunipola delivered a powerhouse performance for England in the win over Ireland, making an astonishing 25 tackles.
