Under the guidance of Johann van Graan, the club reached three semi-finals across major competitions, including a deep run in the Gallagher Premiership and their best European showing in two decades. Yet, the squad will reflect on missed opportunities and moments that could have turned results their way. Among the standout performers was Alfie Barbeary, who, after a slow start, delivered dominant displays at number eight, especially in the Champions Cup, earning multiple player-of-the-match awards and a shortlist spot for European player of the season.
