David Skrela, player of the month

[Stillknox]

He's lucky that the price was voted a few days before France - Australia...  :lol:

Parisse (Stade Français) et Marc Reynaud (Montauban) are beside him. He succed to another toulousain, Byron Kelleher who won it for the month of september, by beating two Pumas: Juan Martin Hernandez (SF) and Nicolas Vergallo. (Dax)

No kidding, he did a good job with Toulouse, especially against his old friends of Stade Français with a cracker game at Stade de France. His last minute kick against Bath was well appreciated too. The competition between him and Michalak should be interesting...

You guys have a Player of the month, every month in the Top 14?

 

[Prestwick]

You guys play Rugby?

 

[Stillknox]

Yep. Canal + (the channel who own the rights of the Top 14) organize a vote between 3 players every month on the internet. I guess even foreigners can vote.

And yes, we play rugby, except at Toulon where the regional sport is kickboxing.

The Guinness Premiership does as well, alongside a coach of the month. However, it's something of a poison chalice, with the winner(s) usually going on to have a terrible patch of form, get injured and/or see their team lose the majority of their matches during the following month.

Good point; well proven by Sale's terrible form - bar Clermont - since the end of September after we won both awards.
Give them to <strike>Northampton</strike> Bath, I say!
