DUBLIN (AP) Scotland fullback Stuart Hogg was chosen as the player of the Six Nations on Thursday for the second year in a row.
He's only the second player to receive the award twice, after Brian O'Driscoll was picked in 2006 and `07.
Hogg received nearly a quarter of the public vote.
Ireland flanker CJ Stander was second with about 15 percent of the vote, and France No. 8 Louis Picamoles third with nearly 13 percent.

''To receive this award again is an absolute honour, particularly when you take other players on the shortlist into account,'' Hogg said.
