Now in his second season as a professional Malik had a tough grounding in the Championship where he gained some valuable experience against some tough, quality forwards. That experience will stand him in good stead and we are excited to see Malik again in 2023. 

A tall, imposing figure with strong core skills Malik had the following to say going into the new campaign.

'It is always a class feeling to pull on the Town shirt and play for my local professional team and to compete at a good level of 3rd tier rugby against some good sides, my hopes for the season are for us to win plenty of games, enjoy it and put some smiles on the fans faces after a tough 2022!'
