Picamoles, who moved to Northampton from Toulouse last summer, was crowned Saints' supporters and players' player of the year.

He missed out on the RPA players' player of the year prize to Wasps back Jimmy Gopperth.

And Gopperth also beat Picamoles to the Premiership player of the season award at the end-of-season dinner in London on Wednesday night.
