Wales' comprehensive 25-7 victory over Ireland on Saturday brought the curtain down on a fraught yet exhilarating Six Nations Championships.
Warren Gatland secured a third Grand Slam triumph while England coach Eddie Jones was left mulling the consequences of his side's Jekyll and Hyde performances.
Now that the dust has settled, Sportsmail's CHRIS FOY played host to this year's Six Nations awards:
Alun Wyn Jones scoops player of the tournament being the driving force of his Wales team
Player of the championship
Alun Wyn Jones. This really isn’t open to debate. Others were very good but the Wales captain was supreme. His influence and relentless drive carried his team to Grand Slam glory.
Team of the championship
L Williams (Wales); J Adams (Wales), J Davies (Wales), H Parkes (Wales), J May (England); F Russell (Scotland), A Dupont (France); R Evans (Wales), K Owens (Wales), K Sinckler (England); AW Jones (Wales), G Kruis (England); J Navidi (Wales), R Moriarty (Wales), T Curry (England).
Try of the championship
Sam Johnson for Scotland against England. Finn Russell set it up with his vision and sublime execution, then Johnson’s pace, footwork and strength to blast through several defenders did the rest.

Biggest letdown
Ireland as a whole, but particularly their Lions
