Highlanders 7 Force 6. The lowest combined score in Super Rugby Pacific since Stormers beat Bulls 13-0 in 2020. Only five other matches in the tournament's history have had less points!

Congrats to Hanro Liebenberg, who becomes only the 220th player to start 100 matches for Leicester Tigers and thereby earning his cap; only two others were born in South Africa: Doctor at the LRI Kilgour Wiener (1929-32) and RAF fly-half Mel Channer (1946-55).

A try bonus in the 15th minute for Bristol today. The only faster one in Premiership Rugby history was in 14 mins by Harlequins v Saracens at the Stoop in 2004.

That equals Northampton Saints 😇 biggest margin of victory over Leicester Tigers in the Premiership Rugby, after 36-13 at Franklin's Gardens in 2019.

Tom Parton grabs the fastest hatrick from the start of any Premiership Rugby match. Beating David Strettle's 22 minute effort also for Saracens Rugby Club at the StoneX v Worcester in 2013.

All three tries the Leicester Tigers Women's team scored on Saturday were by replacements. The only other time when no tries were scored by starters and more than one by reps was when sub Nemani Nadolo scored two for the men's team in an 18-23 loss to Northampton at Welford Road in 2021!

Only five visitors have ever scored 5 or more tries against Bordeaux at Chaban Delmas - all won the game! Wasps in 2011, Racing & Sale in 2018, and Connacht & Toulouse in 2019.

It's been over eight years since a Gloucester Rugby 🍒 player last kicked six penalty goals in a first team game as Santi Carreras did last night. Billy Twlevetrees landed 9 from 11 attempts against Newcastle in Premiership Rugby at Kinsgholm on 16 Oct 2015!

Most points in a Union match: 60 Toru Kurihara (Japan 02), 51 Sam Ulph (Esher 09), 50 Eduardo Morgan (Argentina 73), 50 Ashley Billington (Hong Kong 94), 50 Gavin Lawless (Natal 97), 49 Ross Winney (Macclesfield 10), 49 George Whitehead (Griquas 24).

Further to 17 conversions kicked out of 17 by George Whitehead of Griquas v Border in the SA Cup yesterday. The only other I have kicking 17 or more conversions in a game without missing one is by Tonga's Pierre Hola (also 17) v Korea in a RWC qualifier in Nuku'alofa in 2003.

17 conversions kicked out of 17 this afternoon by George Whitehead of Griquas v Border in the SA Cup, the most in a match in South Africa since Joel Stransky landed 18 for WP v Eastern Transvaal in 1995.

Ready for some Easter Rugby? Leicester Tigers have only played 6 previous games on Good Friday all away from home: since beating Dukinfield in 1892 and not again until winning at Saints in 2006. They have lost their last two on the date: v Quins in 2014 and at Leinster last year.

WP Nel and Brok Harris go head to head in Cape Town in the BKT United Rugby Championship (URC) tomorrow, a combined age of almost 77 years! The oldest starting opposing props in the championship's history. Previously, it was 75 yrs by Duncan Bell (Dragons) v Salvatore Perugini (Zebre) in March 2014.

At last a Scottish hat-trick against England! In 153 years of playing the 'auld enemy' Duhan van der Merwe becomes the first Scotsman to score three in a test. Prevously there had been 21 instances braces scored by Scotland in the Calcutta Cup!

Only Jess Breach has scored a faster hat-trick from the start of a game for Harlequins Women 🃏 in Premiership Women's Rugby than Ellie Kildunne today. Breach scored her 3rd try in the 20th minute v DMP Sharks in 2020.

Ethan Roots becomes the third England Rugby test player who had previously turned out for NZ Maori, after Riki Flutey and Thomas Waldrom.

That's Gloucester-Hartpury's biggest comeback to win a Premiership Women's Rugby match, previously they oveturned a 16 point deficit to win after 26' at home to Harlequins Women 🃏 in March 2018.

In 747 previous test matches only 4 Ireland matchday sqds have ever had NO current Ulster club or provincial player. The 1st in 1882 had a Belfast born player playing for Dublin Uni. The 3 games in 1997 each had 5 players born in the North but playing in England at the time.

There have been just FOUR Premiership Rugby matches which have seen 100 points! Bedford 12 Richmond 106 in 1999, Leicester 72 West Hartlepool 37 in 1999, Sale 53 Bristol 47 in 2992 and Bristol 57 Bath 44 in 2024.

Only one other team has scored 44 points and lost without getting a losing bonus point in Premiership Rugby history... Bath, in losing 44-52 at home to Wasps in January 2021.
