2020 Vision

[GarethGriffiths]

Okay, so it's not the end of the decade just yet.

However, looking ahead to the 2020s, which talents do you believe will make their mark internationally at the start of the next decade?

Who are the best up-and-coming youngsters around the world who could be the future legends? Any stand-outs at the moment, or any 'under the radar' players?

 

[Penne Rara]

Jordie Barrett

 

[Caitlyn Jenner]

Asafo Aumua

Keelan Giles. Still only 19 years old and already Ospreys' best winger.
He scored 2 tries yesterday and finished top try scorer for Ospreys last year despite only playing 19 games in all competitions.

From Ireland, look out for James Ryan. Outstanding prospect in the second row who only made his Leinster debut yesterday. Ireland's best prospect in his position since Paul O'Connell and a better carrier/support player than him too.

Among the backs, Jacob Stockdale is one to watch. Pacy player who's adept at 13 and in the back three. Stands around 6'4" tall with good good balls skills.

If we're looking at an uncapped player, Jordan Larmour stands out. Shades of Jason Robinson in how he plays.

Damian Penaud 20 yo (son of ex-international Alain Penaud) centre - just scored another try v Toulon today. First-starter in a star-studded side. One to watch.
Arthur Iturria 2nd row. Arthur Retiere 20 yo SH regular starter at La Rochelle is excellent.
Yacouba Camara is the most impressive young backrow I've seen when he started at the Toulouse academy.
Have always been impressed by Chris Tolofua who is the most destructive young frontrow in the loose I've seen in a long time, excellent scrummager. Started as prop, now hooker. Could play both position in Top 14 for Toulouse. Haven't seen many 20 yo who can do that. Saracens recruited him. Hope his stint in England help him reveal his talent.
