[QUOTE="Leinster Fan, post: 971707, member: 76349"] So thoughts on the quarter finals: Murray was s*** and we are out. Doesnt have a hope. Smith opposite him was exceptional, brought so much life to the attack especially early on, put himself right in the mix. Been a big fan of Perenara for years but think he's had a pretty average tournament in all fairness. Youngs was decent, he's been fine overall this tournament but nothing amazing. Genia and White were both pretty meh, both are going home without making much of an impression. Faf was good overall, did a lot very well but did make a few mistakes early on. Would still need some huge games to end up on top for me. Reinach and Janties have been good in their limited opportunities but would need to see a lot more gametime. Didn't see what a lot of others saw in Nagare, thought that on balance he was good and got the ball away from the ruck well but far from exceptional. Dupont was excellent again, if I had to pick now I'd go for him. A lot needed to overtake him, no one else has been as consistently excellent. On the other team Davies was okay I guess, nothing special, didn't advance his chances much without killing them either. Tomos Williams was really good off the bench again, he's had a brilliant tournament. Caused the decisive moment and brought more intensity to the Welsh attack. Overall, top 5 at this stage 1) Dupont 2) Williams 3) Davies 4) Smith 5) De Klerk [/QUOTE]
