6N Top Try Scorer? Empty 6N Top Try Scorer?

Post by Equo Troiano Wed Jan 25, 2012 10:56 am

There's plenty regarding which team will finish where, but who do you think will be the top try scorer of the competition? I know this is difficult because we don't know exactly who's going to be playing in each match (selection and injury issues).

For England one of Ashton, Tuilagi (injury permitting) or Morgan.

Malzieu... Either him or Splashton, although my wildcard would be Andrew Trimble!

Top try scorer for Scotland will probably be a forward - with one.

If fit then Clerc would be my prediction, if not then Malzieu.

I think Fofana will be a big hit in the tournament but not a top try scorer.

Considering Evans is in shocking form for Castres and Lamont will probably be at 12 I don't see it. If Jones gets a go don't be suprised if he scores a few, ditto Stuart Hogg from FB.

And you're being silly with Ireland. Earls, Trimble, Kearney all have pretty decent credentials to score the most for Ireland and my dark horse for top try scorer is Trimble, who has been Ireland's best winger for the past 6 months!

Oh and I don't think Clerc will be fit so Malzieu will probably be the best of the French!

You and me both! Sharples, Ashton, or North are my bets - speedsters or poachers galore.

Chris Ashton finished the worldd cup as joint top try scorer and was top try scorer in the last 6 nations. He has every chance of repeating that and his inernational try scoring rcord of 15 tries in 17 games also backs that up.

Chris Robshaw 5 - 1 in each match which all happen to be the winning try after a brilliant performance from the England captain.

I do, unfortunately, think it'll be Ashton.

Or one of the French backline. Depends which team has better matches against Italy, Wales, Scotland.

Medard wildcard?

Super wildcard - Mike Blair.
