Despite Ireland ultimately coming up short against Italy in Dublin, Wafer typified Scott Bemand's side's resilience and willingness to take the game to the opposition.
Wafer beat off an esteemed cohort of nominees, including France's Romane Menager, England's Rosie Galligan and Italy's Vittoria Vecchini. Importantly, her all action display also saw her earn plenty of fantasy points for managers, ranking highly as she did in breakdown steals, metres carried, defenders beaten and tackles.
The 21-year-old from County Wexford is making a name for herself this Championship, and along with the rest of her teammates will be targeting a much-needed win when they welcome winless Wales to Dublin next weekend.
