That’s the lot from me today. Thanks for reading and congratulations to Leicester. I will leave you with Robert Kitson’s report of a memorable Twickenham final:
Freddie Burns joked in his post-match interviews about not celebrating too early after this infamous incident, when he played for Bath, back in 2018:
But there is no question that this drop goal is the moment he’ll be remembered for – all the more remarkable considering George Ford would probably still have been on the field, even at that late stage, if it wasn’t for his first-half injury. Well played, Freddie Burns.
THE GREATEST MOMENT IN FREDDIE BURNS' LIFE! 🤩

Comes on to replace an injured George Ford, picks up an injury himself, soldiers on, and kicks the drop-goal to win the match 🤯
