And you know, you've interviewed all these lads, Jim, when you did your doc for Rugby Pass and all that stuff when they were younger.

They love...

The likes of Freddie Stewart, Jack Van Portfleet, Joe Hayes, all these lads, George Martin, Olly Chesham, they love playing Northampton because that's the proper rivalry, right?

The East-Mids rivalry of those two clubs.

And with the success that Northampton have had recently, obviously won the Prem two years ago, got to the Champions Cup final last year.

The Rugby Pod

Everyone's talking about them being the hotshot team, how they play.

The Rugby Pod
#38 RFU Back Borthwick, URC Play-Off Race Heats up, Leicester Smash Saints

Yeah.

And Leicester went to town on him a bit physically.

And George Martin was the kind of talisman for that, wasn't he?

The Rugby Pod
#38 RFU Back Borthwick, URC Play-Off Race Heats up, Leicester Smash Saints

He's like a dad.

The Rugby Pod

He's like someone's dad playing rugby, just battering boys and holding them and smashing into them.

The Rugby Pod

He's a good character as well.

The Rugby Pod
#38 RFU Back Borthwick, URC Play-Off Race Heats up, Leicester Smash Saints

He's quite a simple guy, isn't he?

The Rugby Pod
#38 RFU Back Borthwick, URC Play-Off Race Heats up, Leicester Smash Saints

He's just like running to that brick wall, I'll fucking do it.

Saracens have got a good signing with him.

The Rugby Pod
#38 RFU Back Borthwick, URC Play-Off Race Heats up, Leicester Smash Saints

Obviously, he's had mega injury issues, but you talk about the momentum towards the end of the season and getting George Martin back, I think, is a massive thing for Leicester going into the last sort of three weeks of the Prem and then potentially the knockouts, which I think with that victory over Northampton should have got them into the knockouts.

And then there's a big chance now they could finish in the top two, just with how Bath have fallen off a little bit over the last couple of weeks.

I know they've got Newcastle at home this week.

The Rugby Pod

But, you know, Saints... Like, Saints are a wicked attacking team.

Their type five's poor, though.
