With all eyes on the final round, certain players crumbled under pressure, delivering performances that left fans shaking their heads.
Whether it was costly errors, disappearing acts, or moments of outright disaster, these six players endured a nightmare outing when it mattered most.
#1. Garry Ringrose (Ireland)
Balls.IE 4/10: “Missed Menoncello when he burst past Hansen. Came from an offside position to pick up a loose ball, putting Ireland 10-7 behind. Missed five tackles.”
Rugby Pass 5.5/10: “Along with Hansen missed a tackle on Tommaso Menoncello that lead to Italy's opening effort. The new bruising hits era Ringrose was once again on show, but is this 2.0 version's tackle completion rate going down? Going off this evidence the answer is a yes.”
Irish Examine 5/10: “Under pressure. Ringrose had to be on his mettle against the tournament's best centre pairing but was part of a struggling Irish defensive line which was too easily breached. Skinned by Capuozzo for Varney's try. Also conceded silly penalty that Allan converted from distance.”
#2. Ben White (Scotland)
RUCK 5/10: “While Scotland ultimately took a penalty and a French yellow card from a resulting incident, White's decision to tap-and-go inside the hosts' 22 was hair-brained and cost his side a shot at seven. He didn't have much bearing on the rest of the visitors' rare successes, and was replaced by Jamie Dobie with 13 minutes remaining to end his championship with a whimper.”
