Ireland’s opponents blindsided by Mack Hansen’s ability to exploit space in tight confines via IrishTimesSport
Ireland scored 20 tries in the tournament, Hansen crossed for three and is down for one assist, recognising his input for Jack Conan’s try against Scotland, figures that fail to fully convey how much of a catalyst the soon to be 25-year-old proved for many of his team’s better moments in attack.
There are trace elements of his days as an outhalf in the way in which he carries the ball in two hands when he is attacking the line, his ability to square up or sit-down defenders and his timing of the pass. Hansen’s fingerprints are on Hugo Keenan’s try, popping up in midfield. Josh van der Flier’s break on the short-side is the precursor to Aki’s try, Lowe provided the scoring pass. From a ruck following a tap penalty, Ireland went to the blindside, Craig Casey and Stuart McCloskey’s quick hands put Hansen over for the try.
