Jonathan Sexton

Ireland's most decorated player and record points scorer, whose leadership through Ireland's best ever period, accurate kicking and calm game management made him one of the finest fly-halves of his generation.

Jonathan Sexton is Ireland's greatest fly-half and World Rugby Player of the Year in 2018, the architect of Ireland's golden era of rugby including back-to-back Six Nations Grand Slams in 2018 and 2023. His exceptional game management, accurate kicking, and leadership under pressure have been central to Leinster's dominance in the Champions Cup. His dramatic penalty to defeat New Zealand in 2016 is one of the sport's defining moments.
