After the conclusion of the 2023 Major League Rugby season, to kick off the End of Season Awards, here is a closer look at the All-MLR First Team.
| Position | Player | Team |
|---|---|---|
| Loosehead Prop | Jack Iscaro | Old Glory DC |
| Hooker | Dylan Fawsitt | New York Ironworkers |
| Tighthead Prop | Juan Pablo Zeiss | Dallas Jackals |
| Left Lock | Sam Golla | Dallas Jackals |
| Right Lock | Johan Momsen | Rugby ATL |
| Blindside Flanker | Christian Poidevin | San Diego Legion |
| Openside Flanker | Lance Williams | Utah Warriors |
| Eight | Wian Conradie | New England Free Jacks |
| Scrum-Half | Richard Judd | San Diego Legion |
| Fly-Half | Jayson Potroz | New England Free Jacks |
| Left Wing | Nate Augspurger | San Diego Legion |
| Inside Center | Le Roux Malan | New England Free Jacks |
| Outside Center | Ben Lesage | New England Free Jacks |
| Right Wing | Tomas Aoake | San Diego Legion |
| Full-Back | Mikey Te’o | San Diego Legion |
I mean sure Potroz had better stats in the end, but given the regular season standings that’s only because NE lasted longer in the playoffs. And Coetzer had better stats on a team with a worse record.
Granted I’m biased as a SaberCats fan.
