One fan captured it perfectly: “CCS is a test match animal! He’s a class act for us every week at Quins, but somehow he finds another gear for England. He always looks like one of the most powerful guys on the pitch, no matter who’s standing in his way!”
Another fan chimed in with some serious praise: “This guy could be a cult hero! With his huge charisma and presence on the pitch at just 21, if he can stay fit and consistent, he’ll be the new Courtney Lawes!”
But it’s not just his raw power that’s turning heads. One comment highlighted an important detail: “The best part of this isn’t just the power; it’s that his first response is to move across and hit the bloke picking up the knock-on into next week, just in case it went backwards!”
With performances like this, it’s clear that Chandler Cunningham-South is making a name for himself on the international stage!

Here’s a look at five players who’ll want to leave their performances behind after the All Blacks defeated England and Scotland routed Fiji in the Autumn Nations Series opener.
Ellis Genge (England)
Guardian 5/10: “Back from calf injury and gassed by Tele’a for first try. Embraced the blitz defence but beaten by Jordan too easily as well.”
Telegraph 5/10: “Brutally targeted by the All Blacks for their opening tries by Tele’a and Jordan. Rule of thumb: don’t leave your prop exposed against All Black outside backs.”
Ben Spencer (England)
Guardian 5/10: “First start at 32 and looked nervous, caught out at one ruck on his own 22 and charged down. Settled thereafter but not the statement showing he’d have liked.”
