Meet Duhan van der Merwe, the 'most dangerous winger in the world' who has Wales in his sights after England wonder try

He has just scored a try for the ages and now Duhan van der Merwe is steaming his way towards Wales.

That was vividly demonstrated by his two touchdowns in last Saturday’s thrilling 29-23 victory over England at Twickenham. His first has been dubbed as one of the greatest in Six Nations history - and understandably so given how he left five defenders clutching thin air on a wondrous weaving 55-metre run to the line, complete with a subtle shift of the ball from one hand to the other to facilitate the final fend on Alex Dombrandt.
