Nominees for the SA Rugby’s Men’s Player of the Year Award.
World Rugby Player of the Year in 2025, Malcolm Marx, will be up against his Springbok team-mates Pieter-Steph du Toit, Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu, Ox Nche and Jasper Wiese, for the prestigious SA Rugby’s Men’s Player of the Year Award.
SA Rugby has announced the nominees as voted for by members of the media and national teams coaching staff in nine categories.
Du Toit, a former winner of both SA Rugby and World Rugby’s top awards, and Nche, were on the shortlist last year too.
Both were also nominated for the World Rugby Award last year.
Feinberg-Mngomezulu, like the other four, was named in World Rugby’s 2025 Dream Team, while Wiese has been nominated for the top SA Rugby award for the first time.
