He has been simply exceptional and if he doesn’t win it shows the journalists who vote don’t know what they’re talking about, but then being again they don’t know what they’re talking about so….

I nominate him as not only World Rugby POTY (by some distance) , but that he be made Patron Saint of Rugby. And all from a player who didn't really look like he was going to make the grade for several years. JVDF proved that there is only one way to get to Carnagie Hall 😁.

    The try at 2:16 has a moment just like that of Will Jordan skinning Sexton. The player ultimately backs themselves. You can see the moment where VDF eyes up the tackler and distance to GL and immediately changes the ball tothe other hand to score perfectly.
    Maybe went a little underrated as a player till now but should be in convos for best 7 in the world / player even he's had that sort of season.

    Between him, Tadhg Furlong & Hugo Keenan. Has to be probably the most consistent open side if not player in world rugby for the last 4/5 seasons. He’s got some engine on him & tackle rate. Never injured. Always plays 80 minutes. Improved his running game immensely! Such a classy player and deceptively strong too!
    The Irish backrow is incredibly strong between him, Jack Conan, Caelan Doris, Peter O’Mahony, Nick Timoney, Gavin Coombes, Will Connors, Cian Prendergast, Scott Penny, Max Deegan, Jack O’Donoghue, Alex Kendellan. Ridiculous amount of strength in depth.

    Definetly a Lions player at the moment. It was disgrace to see him NOT chosen for the lions last year. Imo he deserves to get on the place to Australia in 2025. Besides for all people saying he’s South African, he’s Dutch. Check the video ‘Leinster academy’ I think it’s episode 4 where JVD is documented. He says that he’s half Dutch and moved over when he was young.

      The Sth African line is a running gag started by (and maintained) by the great Squidge Rugby in his videos. It's done purely for laughs. Josh's grandfather was Dutch. Josh was born in Ireland and reared in Ireland, as were his parents as Squidge well knows. He did it as a wind up, and reeled in so many it's taken on a life of its own.
