Absolute monster.
The rugby world is in awe this evening of one man and that’s Louis Picamoles. The French back-row played one of his greatest games in a blue shirt this evening, absolutely running riot against Eddie Jones’ men.
England were just about 19-16 winners in the end, but France could have won it and a lot of that has to do with Picamoles’ mammoth performance. The Northampton star was named man of the match, and rightfully so.
Picamoles made 15 carries today, beat 7 defenders and carried for a monstrous 122 metres. To put that into perspective, Stuart Hogg ran riot against Ireland today, making two clean breaks and finished on 103 metres made. Outstanding from Picamoles.
@RugbyLAD7 Hi there, Picamoles finished on 15 carries, 122 metres and best 7 defenders.
