Tommy O’Donnell’s fine try helped Ireland to victory over Italy in Rome and has been rewarded by being named one of the Six Nations Plays of Week.
The flanker sliced through the Azzurri defence to score under the posts but he was beaten to top spot in the opening weekend by Taulupe Faletau’s brilliant work at the scrum in the build-up to Rhys Webb’s try against England.
The Welsh number eight showed immense strength to dig the ball out of the setpiece and then drew in three England defenders before offloading to Webb who had the simple job of touching down in the corner.
The third play on the list came from the France-Scotland game, with Stuart Hogg’s fine through the legs pass making the grade.
