WHILE THE IRISH provinces managed only three tries between them over the course of the weekend, there were plenty of five pointers elsewhere.

George North dotted down no less than four times in Northampton’s win over the Ospreys in the Champions Cup, while the Premiership and Championship finals of the ITM Cup saw 14 tries in total.

Sky Sports have picked out their five favourite scores from the weekend’s action, and it’s hard to object to North coming out on top of the pile. The video above features only his fourth effort, but you can check out the other three below.

    Best winger in the world? Between himself and Savea at this point surely…

    I agree, but he’s not consistent enough if he plays for a team that gets tactically outsmarted by the opposition.
