1. Duhan van der Merwe 5
2.= Louis Rees-Zammit 4
2.= Anthony Watson 4

Van der Merwe’s late try in Paris was not only significant for giving Scotland victory, but also saw him finish as the outright top try scorer ahead of Rees-Zammit, who had been top since the second round but only scored one in the last three games.

It was the Scotland winger’s second of the night and fourth in two games as he made a late surge to take the accolade.

Most metres made

1. Brice Dulin 489
2. Duhan van der Merwe 472
3. Stuart Hogg 438

Dulin made 104 metres for France against Scotland to finish the championship with the biggest total.

Scotland’s Hogg and Van der Merwe also climbed this list after making 55 and 40 metres respectively on Friday, edging Elliot Daly (434) and James Lowe (433) out of the top three.

Defenders beaten

1. Duhan van der Merwe 32

2. Ali Price 3
3=. Josh Navidi, Dan Robson, Teddy Thomas, Brice Dulin, Stuart Hogg, Jamison Gibson-Park, Jamie George, Dan Biggar, Matthieu Jalibert, Gareth Davies, Louis Rees-Zammit 2

Dupont was the championship’s creative king, making his fifth assist against Scotland on Friday night with the other four coming against Italy.

Once again Dupont leads the way here.

Most carries

1. CJ Stander 72
2. Hamish Watson 67
3. Taulupe Faletau 66

The retiring Stander led the way throughout the tournament, showing how important he is in giving Ireland go-forward in his last Six Nations.

A big shift from Watson in Scotland’s win over France propelled him into the top three, just ahead of Faletau and Ireland’s Robbie Henshaw, who made the most for a back with 65.

Most tackles

1. Justin Tipuric 86
2. Charles Ollivon 79

France captain Ollivon made 16 tackles against Scotland to join them there.

Alun Wyn Jones (75) was fourth and Josh Navidi eighth (69) in terms of tackles made.

More than half of Biggar’s points came in Wales' final game against France as he racked up 20 to finish two points ahead of Matthieu Jalibert, who went off injured and missed the final game against Scotland, and one ahead of Finn Russell.
