All Blacks winger Will Jordan has been named World Rugby's Breakthrough Player of the Year.
He follows fellow All Blacks wingers Nehe Milner-Skudder and Rieko Ioane to win the award which was first handed out in 2015.
The Crusaders star announced his arrival on the world stage over the last 12 months with a record of 15 tries in 11 tests in 2021, including five against Tonga and a hat-trick against USA saw him become the second-fastest All Black to reach 15 tries.
Jordan caught the eye not just for his try-scoring exploits for the All Blacks but also his work off the ball, unlocking defences for team-mates with regularity.
