Tighthead prop Noah Buxton graduated from Northampton Saints’ Academy system ahead of the 2026/27 season, penning his first professional contract with the Club. 

Buxton – whose rugby journey started at Milton Keynes RFC as a 12-year-old – has had a varied journey to the front row, beginning his career as a centre and later a back row as part of Wasps’ (latterly known as Midlands Central) pathway.

He made the move to Saints in his Under-17s season and shifted to tighthead prop in the process, quickly making a name for himself with his barnstorming strength and power.
