Mike Brown - After scoring four tries in three games, Mike Brown has proved once again why he deserves to retain the title of Etihad Player of the Month for December. His stand out performance during Harlequins' 31-24 comeback win against Toulouse in France is just one example of the consistent form which has earned Mike a place in the England Senior Squad in 2012.

Matt Hopper - Matt Hopper has become a regular within the Harlequins first team but never looked out of place, helping to set up Joe Gray's try against Toulouse and crossing the line himself against London Wasps earlier in the month. Matt is certainly one to watch as the second half of Harlequins' season unfolds.

Chris Robshaw - The captain envied by all, Chris Robshaw has lead Harlequins to a record breaking start to the 2011-12 season, finishing December top of the Aviva Premiership and still within reach of the Heineken Cup quarter finals. Chris' strong support within the forward pack has provided the Quins backs with the support they needed to cross the line on no less than nine occasions during the month!

Joe Marler - Thanks to his consistent performances over the season, even without his distinctive hair style, Joe is now recognized as a force to fear by every opposition Harlequins encounter. This will now include any of England's future opponents after his deserved inclusion in the England Elite Player Squad.

James Johnston - James is one of the unsung heroes of the Harlequins team. Throughout December his work behind the scenes has been vital in wins away at Wasps and more impressively Toulouse where he even got the better of his brother, Census Johnston.
