After three wins from four took the Saints back into the Aviva Premiership’s top four, the shortlist for the Steffans Player of the Month has been revealed.
A superb victory on the road at Saracens was followed up by home maximums against both Sale and Harlequins, the latter keeping playoff hopes in the Saints’ own hands with four rounds to play.
Leading the team from the front – and in the running for the second straight month – was Lee Dickson. The scrum-half now heads the club’s scoring charts with a half dozen tries, all of which have come in his last seven outings.
December’s winner Teimana Harrison has also earned his place on the shortlist once again. Man of the match last weekend against Quins, the flanker is among the Aviva Premiership’s top five turnover merchants, stealing opposition ball once every 50 minutes for his side on average.
The final man in the mix has been an ever present in an increasingly influential Saints midfield, George Pisi playing every minute of March. An outstanding reader of the game in defence, no back made more than his 26 tackles, while the Samoan also showed signs of his sparkling best with the ball in hand, too.
While the short-list has been decided who takes home the TW Steel watch is up to you, the club’s supporters.
