Well that brings an end to a brilliant day. It’s a cliche to say that a game had everything, but, well, this one sort of did.
A red card. Blockbuster tries. Breathtaking attacks. Heroism on defence. Shredded nerves. A comeback. A youngster winning the player of the match with a wriggling run and a scrappy steal at the death. What more could you ask for?
Here’s Rob Kitston’s report from Twickers. With that I’ll sign off. Thanks for sticking with me. Hope you enjoyed that as much as I did.
Lewis Ludlum and Courtney Lawes lift the trophy!
They topped the league. They beat Saracens in the semis. They dazzled on attack and added heft, guile and tenacity to their defence. No one can deny that they deserve their flowers. A fantastic team throughout the campaign.
