My Take
Nick Timoney intrigues me because he refuses to sit neatly inside rugby's rigid positional boxes. An Irishman from Dublin, he plays the back row for Ulster and Ireland and is described as a hybrid: a forward with the engine and pace of a back. His selection in the 2021-22 United Rugby Championship Dream Team confirms that this is no gimmick. Rugby tends to reward specialists, so the players who blur those boundaries are genuinely thrilling to watch. I have a soft spot for the understated workhorse who still finds the decisive moment, and Timoney looks every bit that kind of player.
