Name: Matthew Andrew Banahan
Club:Bath Rugby

Born 30th September 1986

Matt Banahan is one of the first players to become a RFTG fav - (remember the launch party at the Three Kings Matt?!!). He has gone from what seemed to be an obvious position of second row at Irish to become an amazing try scorer on the left wing for Bath this season. What a difference a year makes!
