Leinster fly-half Johnny Sexton was nominated for the World Player of the Year award for a second time on Friday.

Sexton was nominated for this year’s award alongside Springbok pair Faf de Klerk and Malcolm Marx, New Zealand’s Rieko Ioane and two-time winner Beauden Barrett.

The award was first introduced by World Rugby in 2001 and there have been five other Irish players nominated in the past with Sexton also receiving a nomination in 2014.

We’ll give you him but can you name the five other players to have received nominations? You have two minutes. Best of luck!
