I confess i do wonder sometimes what constitutes being "on your feet" at a breakdown. Seems that players can defy the laws of gravity at times.

However.....Tigers really good value for the win. It was great to see Ford put in such a classy performance. i thought Youngs looked pretty good considering he's only just back from injury. Kitchener seems to have found his mojo and Genge is a force of nature.

Tough one for Sale to lose but they arent quite a top 6 side lacking a little bit of quality all round.

Or listened to the Rugby Pod.

IF and it's a big IF he can play like that consistently then they would be no question over his England position.
Maybe he and Tigers have learned Ford is best when he can attack the line not just feed it to 12.

That was the best I've seen from Ford, Manu, or Youngs in quite a while. Shame it's the last game of the season; would've been nice to see if they could've backed that up.

Nice touch to let Logo take the kick in the end.

Neither team right now looks up to much in terms of the Euro comps next season. But both sides aren't far off making a big step forwards
