Christian Wade

Despite a Heineken Champions Cup defeat to Leinster, Racing 92 flyhalf Finn Russell has sent a warning shot to Scotland's Six Nations.

The strong form of the Bath-bound Russell has been at the heart of everything his team has done well. His performances have not gone unnoticed by Scotland head coach Gregor Townsend, and he has been rewarded with a recall to the Scotland national team for the upcoming Guinness Six Nations tournament. The Scotland flyhalf has been instrumental in leading his team to fifth in the Top 14 standings. While Racing 92 have had a mixed season to date, Russell has been at the heart of everything they’ve done well. Russell somehow slipped between three Leinster defenders before pointing to where he was going to pass before releasing a perfectly floated ball with his left hand to winger Wade, who boasts a fine strike rate against Leinster, did the rest.
