Antoine Dupont
The French captains return to the 6Nations after his 7's rugby hiatus was nothing short of amazin. His return saw him make 3 try assists, and most metres made although he went off in the 49th minute.

LOSERS
Owen Watkins - Wales no. 12
After earning his 43rd cap for Wales, the centre was assisted off the field while limping which may put his 2025 6Nations campaign in doubt.
Aaron Wainwright Wales no.8
Went off as a blood sub in the 3rd minute, but never returned resulting in his night ending early.
Evan Lloyd
Hooker Evan Lloyd's hit on Louis Bielle-Biarrey him booked with a yellow that came close to being upgraded to a 20 minute red card
After a stellar game at fly-half, Ntamack was sin binned for a shoulder charge. However things went from bad to worse for the Toulouse fly-half as his card was reviewed and upgraded to red. This will throw a spanner in the works coach Fabien Galthie who will have his work cut out for him with his fly-half now facing suspension.
