Holwell is Celtic League player of the month

DAVID HOLWELL’S trophy cabinet will be a crowded one this Christmas.

The Leinster out-half was yesterday named the Celtic League player of the month for November. Three weeks earlier, the Kiwi signing was voted Bank of Scotland (Ireland) Player of the Month following his performances for the province in both the League and the Heineken Cup.

From the off, Holwell has made the number ten position his own scoring a total of 57 points and earning two man-of-the-match awards from five appearances this season.
