- 2029
Round 4 got underway with Racing 92 coasting to a bonus point win over Ospreys and Ulster earning a valuable away win against Harlequins. There were some fine individual performances.
John Cooney - Ulster:
The man scored again this evening meaning he has scored in each of the 4 rounds this season. It would be hard for him to be overlooked for the 6 Nations and looks set to make another Team of the Week at the end of the weekend. Tonight saw a brace of tries and a try saving tackle
