- Rising Stars: * Charlie Tamani (England): Showed incredible pace and power throughout the festival, notably scoring a solo try from his own half against Ireland.
- Sam Morgan (Wales): A standout playmaker who was instrumental in their opening-round win.
- Louis Favrau (France): Cited as one of the tournament’s most elusive centers, playing a key role in France’s high-tempo offloading game.
