    Need more Finn! My favourite of the moments not included here is when he shaped to kick a penalty inside the 22 to the corner against Australia, then quickly tapped it, spun round, passed the other way and put (IIRC) Huw Jones in for a try. Beautiful misdirection.

      Finn Costello O'Reilly well as someone who watches finn russell week and week out i must say that he has become way more consistent since his move to france, he had an outstanding six nations and carried a squad full of injuries, just look what he did against england, one of the best individual performances i have seen in ages, the guy is amazing and is probably the best 10 in the world at the moment

    • @AM-jh7jg

      Russell is phenomenal, but suggesting that he is undoubtedly better then farrell seems a bit hard on the English man.

    • @dillonyt4829
      @dillonyt4829 5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      He’s definitely better than Farrell at 10 I would say Farrell is better at 12 for me he isn’t a 10 I stay with my opinion and I think ranking at 10 1st would be Barrett and 2nd would be Finn Russell

    • @AM-jh7jg
      @AM-jh7jg 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @craig forsyth as a scot myself, I honestly believe in 2 or 3 years whenever the next tour is, finn Russell will be the best 10 in the world. If I were to pick my squad now farrell would start in 10 cos the lad is consistent, and captain material. As for gatland, his clear bias towards Welsh players within lions squads of the past has been disappointing. I'd love to see a new coach in place, Schmidt for lions I hope🙏

    Things I love about Finn Russell
    1. The skillset
    2. Takes the ball to the line, gets hit late all the time and never makes a fuss like other notable 10s I could mention...
    3. Has absolutely no rig whatsoever, clearly avoids the gym, and yet is one of the world's best players
    4. Plays with a cheeky grin constantly on his mush
    5. The nutmeg try
    6. Singing Flower Of Scotland whilst totally shitfaced
