From Ireland, Woodward suggested keeping an eye on this Six Nations is back-row Doris, who was exceptional during the autumn.
Indeed, Doris would end up missing the 2021 Six Nations due to a recurrence of concussion, ultimately taking an extended break from the sport.
Such a scenario saw him miss out on potential Lions selection, while he returned in the summer of 2021 for Tests vs the USA and Japan in Dublin.
He’s since gone onto establish himself as a key figure in Andy Farrell’s back-row.
