Flying Fijians wing Semi Radradra has been included in Planet Rugby’s Team of the Year.

It has six players from South Africa, two All Blacks, three players from England and two from Wales.

There is one player from Fiji and one from Japan.

Planet Rugby says Radradra has quickly established himself as one of the most devastating runners in union and has deservedly received plenty of recognition as a result.

The leading rugby union discussion forum says with the ball in hand, Radradra is hugely difficult to stop and those qualities were displayed on the biggest stage in Japan.
