Five Irish-based players on European Player of the Year longlist

Tadhg Furlong is nominated for the third year in a row.

Leinster and Ulster players make up five of the 15 nominees for the 2020 EPCR European Player of the Year award.

Jordan Larmour gets a nod after a season in which he has made the Leinster full-back jersey his own, starting all six Champions Cup games as he edged ahead of former European Player of the Year Rob Kearney in the pecking order.
