Barry Everitt

Barry, who signed a three-year contract with the Saints in early 2007, is one of the most prolific points scorers in English club rugby having amassed 1,332 points in 169 appearances at his former club, London Irish – a record for the Exiles. He was the Premiership’s top scorer in 2000/01 and was awarded the PRA Golden Boot in 2000. Barry was also in the Irish team that defeated Saints in the 2002 Powergen Cup final and played for both the Leinster and Munster provincial sides in Ireland. He has represented Ireland at A, U18, U21 and Sevens and in 2002 was a Barbarian.

However Barry's first season in a Saints shirt has been stop-start to say the least. Having seen September out Barry was rested for a fortnight, only to suffer an injury upon his return against Doncaster that saw him ruled out for several weeks. Then after getting back to fitness in the Wanderers and playing a full role in December injury struck again in the home derby against Bedford. Nevertheless he is still averaging over 10 points per game.
