Some nice stats in this article about individual performances in the Welsh team. Wish there was way more of this type of stat-filled article!

Interesting article. Faletau definitely is a work-horse, and an all round one at that. The only problem with him in this 6 nations was his failure to pass the ball on a few occasions when the space was outside him. That will come with experience though.

Some of those stats are phenomenal though. He averaged over 11 runs per game, beating an average to 10 defenders per game, and makes over 10 tackles per game. Just needs to get his brain up to the same level and he really could be something special.

This article also shows just how good Ian Evans and Ryan Jones were this 6 nations. For a second row, Ian Evans got through a ton of work. Considering he only started two games, Ryan Jones' stats were also impressive.
