5 players that impressed this weekend
With some interesting results in both the Pro 12 & Premiership, there were a number of stand out players to go with big team performances. Here is out pick for the top 5 stand out players of the weekend.

Thomas Waldrom

It's not often for a forward to get 3 tries and not get man of the match, so 'Thomas the tank' has to be included. He was phenomenal in an Exeter pack which dominated an inform Wasps side. Waldrom led from the back well and was devastating going forward, managing to get a hat trick for the Chiefs.

Tim Visser

The Scotland international has settled into life at the Stoop incredibly well and kept up his great form against London Irish at the weekend. Visser has now scored 6 tries in all competitions for Quins as they now sit in 4th in the Premiership table.


Charlie Hodgson

A fantastic performance from the out half, who is set to retire at the end of the year. Great performance with the boot, kicking 18 points and he also nabbed a late intercept try late on to help Saracens on their way to a bonus point win over Newcastle on Sunday.


Justin Tipuric

Ospreys head coach Steve Tandy hailed him as 'unplayable' against Zebre as the Welsh region got their 3rd consecutive win in the league. The flanker added a try in both halves. Tipuric, who was captain for the day, also had a hand in two more tries in a fine all-round display.


Mitch Lees

Exeter put in one of the performances of the season against an inform Wasps side and Lees was central to that. Exeter were on another level upfront to Wasps and the Coventry based side couldn't handle it. Lees was an influential leader at the set piece and going forward. Was awarded MOTM and also managed to get on the score sheet.
