On Saturday Leicester Tigers and Northampton Saints go head to head for glory in the Aviva Premiership Final, played out in front of a packed Twickenham Stadium. Fans now have the opportunity to get involved and make a difference for the finalists.
Rivalries up front will be reignited as Lions first choice hopefuls go up against one another for the final time before the big tour down under. Dylan Hartley has said he will not back down, and will use this as a chance to impress coach Warren Gatland.
“A few people think I am in the Lions squad to cover the third hooker place,” Hartley explained. “I see this weekend as a chance to push myself forward. I am going there to win a trophy for the club but it is an opportunity to put my hand up.”
On the other side, Dan Cole says he is relishing the challenge of a derby game between two big clubs with a lot of history. “It always adds spice. It might boil over, it might not, we’ll see, but that’s the game. It all adds to the occasion,” said the England prop.
