Carbery is also the leading points scorer in the Champions Cup this season, and tops the PRO14 Golden Boot standings with an 87-per-cent kicking success rate.

Carbery played twice in this year's Six Nations, coming off the bench in the defeat to England on the opening weekend and the victory over Scotland a week later.
