Antoine Dupont

Who's better ?

In the same mould, I think Scotland's George Horne isn't to far. He just needs more experience.
Dupont burst into pro rugby at 17? Seems like he has been there for ages.

No-one - He'd be starting SH for Earth in the Rugby Galatic Cup

Dupont has been elected player of the 6 nations this year

Quite right too. Absolutely glorious 6N for him and it was utterly insulting that Ben Youngs was a nominee for the same prize given their respective tournaments. He was in a different class to anyone else in the tournament.

My main desire when the RWC draw come this year is for England to avoid being drawn in your group. I'd rather share a group with literally any other team except for New Zealand.

If France don't peak too soon then there'll be favourites for their World Cup.

Don't you think they are a bit too young to pick too soon ?

Probably. He's got an awful lot of credit in the bank for his winning record so far.

Best player in the world maybe beauden at 10 only competition?

[Mr Mwenda]

I think I noticed one pass that didn't go to hand and the French still almost got a try. So effortless as well.

[Stom]

Best player in the world maybe beauden at 10 only competition?

Nah. He's the best.

But the fawning, jeez.

Easily the best 9 around, though.

[Digby]

He is quality, but he might not be a better 9 than Smith, Italy are no yardstick, and Beaudy is no 10

[tigran]

How would you compare Smith and Dupont ?

[Digby]

Both quality, they differ a little in how they play and I guess it depends what you want in a XV from your 9. They're clear of the rest at the top though. I suppose if I could have for England either I'd pick Dupont, but on the basis he's getting on for a decade younger not around a standard of play

[paddy no 11]

Yeah like Italy are the only opposition hes been good against

If Dupont were English, we wouldn't know yet if he was capable of stepping up to international rugby.
He'd have about 80-100 minutes, spread over a dozen caps.
