Tom Pearson has been named the cinch Player of the Month for October, with the flanker’s impressive performances in Northampton Saints’ four matches that month seeing him claim almost 50% of the supporter vote.
Northampton rounded off their Premiership Rugby Cup campaign to start October, defeating Doncaster Knights 82-12, before facing Sale Sharks, Bristol Bears and Newcastle Falcons in the Gallagher Premiership – securing a 16-14 win over Falcons in Round 3 of the league.
And it was the 24-year-old who claimed the overwhelming majority of the supporter vote to take home the award as he edged out fellow nominees Sam Graham, Curtis Langdon and Tom Seabrook.
Summer signing Pearson announced himself onto the Gardens stage in fine form, scoring a brace of tries against Doncaster and crossing the whitewash again against Bristol, as well as making some 43 tackles across the three Premiership outings.
Pearson goes marching on 😇

Throughout the season, cinch will also be offering up a range of prizes for those who vote for the award, with one lucky supporter each month selected at random after voting closes.
This month, one lucky supporter was chosen from those who voted and entered the prize draw through the Saints Rewards portal to present the award to the winner, with Chris Maden selected at random out of over 500 supporters who voted to deliver the trophy to Pearson and collect a shirt signed by the flanker.
