VOTE: SEPTEMBER PLAYER OF THE MONTH

AS a new initiative for the 2025/26 season, we encourage supporters to vote for their 1st XV Player of the Month.

The shortlist for September is:

Willo Bicknell

The summer signing hit the ground running following his move from Oxford Harlequins.

Impressed on National One debut at Sedgley Park before scoring his first Rams’ try in a man-of-the-match display in the big win against Dings Crusaders.

Also crossed the whitewash in the defeat at Sale FC.

Mike Cooke

Fly-half topped the points chart with 28 in his first month of league action at the club.

Masterful display against Dings saw the fly-half knock over nine conversions, while he was also on target four times versus Tonbridge Juddians a fortnight later.

Axel Kalling-Smith

Sweden captain started the season in red-hot form with four tries in as many games.

Touched down in the opening-day triumph at Sedgley, backing it up with a brace in the Dings demolition and then scored a typically brilliant solo score in the victory versus Tonbridge Juddians.

Morgan MacRae

Swapped from the pack to inside centre, the former Wales 7s ace led the try-scoring charts with five in four matches.

Doubled up in the Dings win – as well as missing out on a hat-trick when he slipped before Max Hayman’s chip-and-collect effort – went over at Sale and scored two more against TJs during a productive month.
