@@bluejays25 If Watson could jump in the lineout, he'd get criticised for not being able to pack down at loosehead! Most teams don't have a lineout jumper at 7.
@@sam2131 So true this guy is better in every department that players like tipuric bar lineout jumping but thats why you have 2 second rows and a 6 and possibly even an 8 to jump.
He's all heart this guy!! Love his tenacity on the pitch. Such a great example to young players of how to play with positive intent and channelled aggression!! I'll be gutted if he doesn't get a Lions call up. From an England fan
Absolutely brilliant player, has been playing really well the last few year and feel He is wasted at Edinburgh. Fully deserved the award and should be getting a lions shirt! Great video as always 👏🏻
Absolutely uncanny ability to keep moving forward in contact. Some of it is very discreet changes in direction and pivots, some of it is because he is made of lead.
Great tribute, love to see the headband mullet flying about the pitch! Beirne was unlucky not to win the award, he was also outstanding, if you need another player to do a tribute to . . .
Could you make a video for DuPonts 6 nations I feel like he was player of the tournament in my opinion but Watson had a serious tournament so can’t be mad on the decision
From Nz he looks every bit the modern breakaway, he dies look small, but he can tackle, break tackles, steal the ball at rucks, run and oass well. He is off to South Africa imho
@@migsg7238 yeh its a bit like wrestler billed weight. Ive seen him talked of as being 6' 1" and 103 kgs. Your 5' 11 looks more like it, McCaw finished at 110kgs and was always around 6' 3" i think. But the point is he looks a very good player and i think will be in the lion's
@@joedennehy386 TBH his weight is a moot point as it usually takes 2 to 3 tacklers to get him on the ground. He has huge upper body strength and his (slightly) shorter height makes him immovable if he gets his hands on a ball at a break down. I also don't recall ever seeing him have a bad game. I'd take him if he was 5ft 1. (not just because I'm a Scot).
Edinburgh are rubbish this season. i'm not really sure why tbh, cos they still have most of the same squad that has done well in Europe in recent seasons and got to the play offs in the league the season before.
@@Demondoink1 Yeah I was originally putting it down to Covid disruption but at this point I'm just at a loss. Thinking a new attack coach must be an option.
Hamish Watson has nothing against pascal gauzeres performance against England, got a brace and kept itoje in his pocket, a resounding 80 minutes for the man. A superb prospect for the future! P.S. all in good humour 😉

After watching Watson play he's become one of my favourite players (I'm a SA fan). He isn't very talented, fast or big, but he is the definition of player with heart.
@@danhadley4242 Yeah, but virtually everyone outside Wales has talked smack about Wales at some point!.......I lived in Bristol for 15yrs and they detest the Welsh.........Most people like the Irish, most people like the Scots, but very few people seem to like the Welsh for some reason........Strange really......
Don't get me wrong, he had a great 6n, but I'm not sure he was the best player of the tournament, and even Scotland (hogg was better) but i guess it's the result of fans votes, rather impartial ones. I wish he will be among the lions squad. He's an atypic profile.
@@pilgrim3387 there were still 4 other games in the 6 Nations that were played... Hogg had his best tournament in a number of years, probably since he last won the player of the tournament award. owell, at least he won the Champions Cup the season before though. Leinster didn't get much further, did they?
No he wasn't. Duhan had some defensive lapses. Watson had 0. He had a 100% tackle completion rate, won turnovers and did the hard carries. The only player in discussion for a better 6N? Fickou.
There were better (more deserving) players that should've gotten this accolade. Mediocre opposition will always make a good player look exceptional. That said: Congrats to him. He's grown on me quite a bit since I started watching NH rugby. (Can't say I was too impressed with the overall quality of rugby though...but I guess growing up watching NZ rugby will do that to a person.)
At this stage I don't really rate any of the NH teams as "great". They were all pretty much in the same ballpark -which is why so many of those games were so close. (Obviously this excludes Italy -no offense to Italy.) The best thing that could / can happen to NH rugby (and the worst thing for NZ rugby) is for the SA'n teams to join up north. Ever wonder why the All Blacks became *that* good? SAn rugby. They developed their fast-paced-skill-based style because they simply couldn't out-muscle the SA'ns. I mean, the AB's hadn't played SA for a year and then went on to lose to ARG. ( I'm sort of joking, but also sort of not :-) ) Off-topic and all just my opinion, of course...but watch this space :-) That doesn't mean I did not enjoy watching the 6 Nations, though. I really wanted Scotland to win the comp. (I think Duhan should've gotten this prize. Most tries and breaking a 20 year Brian O'Driscoll record...all on debut? That's special. I guess I'm bias like that, though XD ) Great channel and content, BTW. 97% of the time you'll get a thumbsup from me XD (Y)
@@Keizer_Soze to be fair the all blacks first game against sa was 1921. There record up to then was like 26-3. They were already good sa made them better.

When you think of all the class flankers accross UK/Ireland its no mean feat to come out of the 6 Nations as top dog.
Hes one of Scotlands most reliable players. He will always steal a ball and he rarely misses a tackle
He was an absolute monster all tournament. Surely has to get the #7 for the Lions.
I agree 100%. The only thing against him is that he's not a line-out jumper.

Put a picture of him up on the wall in my gym back in 2017, been motivating me since
4 years later.....I bet your hair is amazing!
Throughly deserves it the man is a beast 🏴
Great video as always. He was one of the best players throughout the whole 6N. And you get a great FF soundtrack to match with the style
Amazing feat, must get that great strength through his 80’s mullet. Outstanding player.
Absolutely brilliant player, has been playing really well the last few year and feel

Absolute ENGINE with a brain. Great choice.

Now I'm Scottish and used to wee hard men but Hamish is awesome a real man on a mission in that shirt.

Absolutely uncanny ability to keep moving forward in contact. Some of it is very discreet changes in direction and pivots, some of it is because he is made of lead.
Utterly deserved, brilliant player !!!!

The nicest man in rugby

Could you do a billy Holland tribute, seeing as he played one of his last games this week
Is he not playing in the rainbow cup?!
@@AndrewDavidForde ya I think so, that’s why I said “one of”

a back row of Watson Curry and Faletau is exactly what we need for the lions
Swap faletau for simmonds. And im welsh

100%.

Totally deserves it (a french fan talking) ! A bit disappointed with his performance against Racing92 though
what - he and Jamie both were the best for Edinburgh in that game.
Edinburgh were woeful in the second half, but he was still a beast throughout
Watson and Jamie Ritchie singlehandedly kept Edinburgh in it for 50min
