7 of the best tries from this year's 6 Nations

From Stuart Hogg’s kick and chase to Simon Zebo’s flick for Cian Healy’s try and a few beauties in between.

A GRAND TOTAL of 37 tries were scored by teams in this year’s Six Nations.

Here are our seven favourites:

Simon Zebo (IRELAND v Wales)

A superb, sweeping team move is sprinkled with pixie dust by Brian O’Driscoll as he finds Zebo with a peach of a pass.

Stuart Hogg (SCOTLAND v England)

Scotland show some fight against the English as David Denton starts the break, Sean Maitland kicks on and Hogg does the rest.

Cian Healy (IRELAND v Wales)

The try comes 10 seconds after that flick from Zebo and great work from Rory Best.

Wesley Fofana (FRANCE v England)

The Clermont man shows coach Philippe Saint-Andre the damage he can do from midfield.

Manu Tuilagi (ENGLAND v France)

The outside centre breaks French resistance with this opportunistic score.

Alex Cuthbert (WALES v England)

Justin Tipuric shows footwork, finesse and pace before setting up Cuthbert.

    Hogg’s try was great to watch. Came from nothing. Excellent passing from backs and forwards. Great team effort and a bit of individual skill from Hogg to finish it off.
    Fofana’s try was a great solo effort but you’d have to question the flakey tackles from a number of England players in the lead up to it. Scotland and Hogg just split the defence open though. For me, Hogg is ahead of Kearney for a Lions jersey(!). Kearney’s not at full form yet and Hogg has been great for both club and country.

    Individual skill – Fofana.
    Team work – has to be Cuthbert’s.
    Never tire of watching either.
