Incredible season from the Bus

Tuisova’s 2025 season will go down as one of his best yet. After missing most of the 2024 season through injury, he managed just 5 matches at the end of the season. Fast forward 12 months and the Bus played all but 3 Top 14 matches in 2025, totalling 27 matches when you include Champions Cup and Challenge Cup games.

Despite not playing finals, he topped the competition for metres made with 1890 and unsurprisingly broken tackles with 82.
