Was great to be there and no one can say Leicester didn’t deserved this Title - was top of the league too! Great to see Tom Youngs lift the cup at the end as well 🐯 😊
I was surprised by Chris Ashtons performance. Defensively sound and made some important rush tackles to stop sarries going wide…Also unselfish when he had the ball attacking. Very impressive from the old poacher
Well deserved Leicester 👍
His defence is still his weakest point but he's been a revelation for Tigers this season, I'm delighted he's staying on for 22-23.
@@linalmeemow absolutely that’s why it was soo surprising yesterday, but players of his calibre rise to the occasion. Deserves to stay on for next season definitely
He has come on defensively at tigers. He will be a monster once he's got 2 seasons under his belt at tigers!!
Ashton has always been massively underrated
@@billybob01234567 I think he was over rated when he first came on the scene. That stupid splash and just a meh attitude. He has matured brilliantly! He will reward us with a great few seasons 100%
From the highlights, a game truly worthy of a final; I like to think it would be just as exciting to watch without commentary, but can we just take a moment to appreciate Martin Bayfield and his unparalleled punditry
It was a great hame, egde of seat stuff all the way!
Massive thanks to my son for the early fathers day present of a ticket. I cried my eyes out! Was such an amazing atmosphere. So pleased I got to share it with my daughter who has always been a massive Freddie burns fan!
I felt the same with my 2 kids a special day
Great game, Leicester deserved it.
Freddie Burns made that drop goal look too easy.
Leicester were absolutely outstanding. They shut Saracens down and played some fabulous attacking rugby. Well done Tigers :)
I was there… goosebumps all the way.
The Leicester crowd was sensational.
Me too. I had a few beers, but I felt more drunk than 2 bottles of whiskey combined. The drop goal was a crazy atmosphere. The Leicester fans cannot be beaten, still the biggest team in the country by far.
Born in Leicester, it’s in the blood, the heart and the fabric of the City. Once a Tiger, always a Tiger. Yes, it was a well deserved win after this seasons achievement. Had some tears when I saw Tom on the pitch, what a man, god bless. Everyone was brilliant! Good to the Tigers roar again, thank you everyone for making a Leicester son very happy.
Same here
Fantastic game and crowd - an honour to have been in the stands at Twickenham watching it! 🏉
Crowd was unbelievable. Even as an Irish man I can only tip my hat to you all - I know they're two massive clubs but a sold out Twickers is mighty impressive 👏 atmosphere looked immense.
@WorkInProgress I think it is yeah haha but it still kinda shocks me every time. But I guess that's the advantage of every team involved located in that country.
The URC could have a SA side playing a final vs a Welsh side in Dublin hahaha not ideal in ways.
@@IrishBorussen It wasn't quite sold out but I think that's mainly because Sarries have a small core fanbase. There must've been 25-30,000 tigers fans there at least.
Marvellous result for Leicester. Sinfield has brought real steel to Leicester’s defence which gave the platform for this victory
An awesome final and a deserved win for the Tigers 👏🏻👏🏻 they deserved that for the consistency all season
Leicester done a Saracens on Saracens and completely shut them down for 70 minutes
So happy for Freddie Burns
Disappointed sarries couldn't go all the way, but I do like Leicester, can't help but smile when you see top lads like Ford, Burns, Ashton and Youngs celebrating, seeing Tom Youngs lift the trophy made my disappointment completely go away 🙏🏼 cracking season hoping next year is just as good
Leicester kicked over 40 times in this game, averaging 36 in the regular season, because if you try to outmuscle saracens they will find a way through your tired defence. Leicester conceded 0 tries because of it. They won by pouncing on mistakes and then clever preparation. Saracens forced to play Leicester way and they almost won. But cometh the hour, Burns was there to take advantage of the last kicking ping pong. Borthwick is a genius. He adapts even when so much is on the line and he makes huge calls. Nadolo not even in the 23 shows that. Saracens players at the end look puzzled because it’s as if they’ve woken up going; ‘when did we start playing our rugby?’ Tigers relied on planning with a dash of magic, and that slot at the end was magic. Burns; now a Tigers titan for life. And for us fans? Watching the literal translation of redemption.
Tactical masterclass from Tigers. When was the last time Sarries failed to score a try in a game?
Apart from the drop goal, the other thing I enjoyed was to see the pig sick look on Farrel's face at the end.
Mate you couldn't have put that in any better words!
Leicester forced Saracens into playing their way, and it worked. Saracens style is hard, aggressive rugby with lots of hard lines and inside balls. They also like to fling it around a bit in the backline and kick for territory. Had Leicester allowed them to have the game their own way, it would've been a demolition job, but they didn't. Tigers deservedly won that. What a credit to Leicester those players (especially Ben Youngs and Burns) are.
At Welford Road earlier this season. We’ve played them 3 times this season and stopped them scoring a try in 2 of those games.
As a Leicester lad who supports Leicester tigers and leicester city I couldnt be any prouder. Weve seen some top players at welford road like Geordan Murphy, Martin Johnson, Neil Back, Austin Healey, joel stransky to name a few but these boys dont half embody the grit and team spirit required to be a tiger. Come on you tigers!
I'm a footie man really, never played rugby although I understand it and loved the six nations, but my son started going and I've been going along to a few games over the last 2 seasons and about 7 games this season.
It's been fantastic and me and my 2 kids were at twickenham. What a great day. All the fans were brilliant and we were crying and hugging when the drop goal went over and at the end. What a season, what a team,what a special day!
TIGERS!!
They dominated the whole game in my opinions and really deserved the win
Second half they were on the ropes let’s not lie, but they got the win that’s all that matters
*the whole season
Chiefs fan here
Thank you Leicester for showing us how it's done
Said by a true rugby fan!
the RFU have apologised to Saracens for the yellow card saying it should have been a penalty try to them and that it will not happen again. I did feel sorry though for Saracens as Earl was going to beat Leicester on his own but was let down by his team mates and Referee. A red card all season is a yellow in the Final because the player was wearing Black. It is the only reason I can see. Not a fan of either team by the way just anti play offs
Saracens played far too negatively imo. Both teams clearly where going with a kicking strategy, and in that area saracens and Leicester were clearly on equal footing as shown by the close score. However I feel the saracens back had the advtange over Leicester and when they started running with pace and with farrell picking some great balls they looked dangerous. But clearly the decided strategy was kicking and they just stuck with it too their disadvantage. I feel this is something wrong with English teams their too reliant on coaches to dictate strategy as opposed to seeing what’s on the field. Leicester on the other hand we’re quite content with the continuing kicking game were they could go toe to toe with sarries and eventually come out on top.
Any combination of a London Irish , Bristol, Northampton Saints or Harlequins final would have been entertaining and full of running rugby. Unfortunately until something changes the bully boy kicking game is going to prevail as witnessed by yesterdays match.
@@rhodsullivan7773 The joy of rugby is the difference in styles, a game like yesterday's is just as entertaining to me as an open running game!
@@linalmeemow it is to us hard core rugby fans. But no way you will grow the game with this sort of style usually coming out on top 9 times of 10 against teams who attack from everywhere and chuck the ball about. Its sad as you want to really encourage that kind of rugby, but teams literally cannot play that way against this style. Its the anti rugby, as much as I still love watching sarries and Leicester play. Everyone has to copy this style if they want sustained success. I've tried to show many friends rugby games and get them into it and they just can't handle the tactical kicking and defensive strangulation. I do understand where non rugby fans are coming from. Need to keep trying to encourage positive rugby in the laws. But not sure how you do it. Its very important to have different styles, but this is like playing elden ring and one class is completely op compared to all others. So you are kind of stupid if you choose to play one type. Even if it does look nice. Sad reality of rugby at the moment. Even my own club team are now transitioning away from the rugby that I love, to try and have a more forwards muscle orientated game. Gutted tbh. But know it will win us more games in the prem.
@@rhodsullivan7773 long may it continue best kind of rugby
Yes cause sacerry were breaking Leicester line all season except 5he weren't guess you missed the other 2 games this season?
Do not forget that George Ford is the true hero for Leicester. Burns took his moment but Ford was the pivotal player who's performance, control, game management and all around demeanour led Tigers to win the Premiership. Best fly half in the world bar none.
squidgerugby is that you?
He's good but surely not the best in the world, possibly not even the best in England.
Ever heard of someone called Marcus Smith?
This comment unravelled at such rapid speed and then exploded into sheer stupidity - but I do love that it's your way of celebrating ;)
Jasper wiese, beast mode Hanro Lienberberg performance, Safas forward was oustanding this year, SA vs Walles will be epic
Wiese has been superb this season, his tackle technique has improved no end and he's got his aggression under control - he's gone from a yellow card machine to one of the most consistently excellent 8s in the Prem.
And both would walk into the England team which tells you something about SA depth and England's lack of options.
@@bodhid Not sure either would "walk in", England aren't wanting for decent flankers or eights. That said, once you get to England's third string players you see significant weakness - look at that dismal performance against the Barbarians.
@@bodhid England have depth where SA don't, at 10 for example. Also England have an embarrassment of riches in the back row, with players like Earl, Curry, Underhill, Dombrandt, Simmonds, Willis, Lawes, Mercer etc.
@@joeboonmusic4004 I'm not sure we have that level of depth; either way SA seem to have the upper hand in the forwards and until we canget parity or dominance they'll always have a head start
Tigers fan here!! Thought it was an excellent game of Rugby between 2 of the best teams in England right now. I looked at the lineups before kickoff and knew it would be tasty. Glad to see Tigers back where we belong
Burns deserved this one! What a brilliant performance both sides 🙏🏾
A long long time coming if you're a Tigers fan..
🎵🎶Up where we belong🎵👍😊😎
Leicester:
*wild celebrations*
Steve Borthwick:
😐
Congrats 🔥 One of the best Rugby games ever, especially the first half.
If finals were won on 'whooping and hollaring' sarries would of won that.
BUT THERE NOT!
Plus think there were 70K Leicester fans there to!
Great job boys.
COYT FROM QUINS
Bravo Tigers! My club! 🐯💚
Legendary game!
Excellent performance from Tigers in a real armwrestle of a game. That said, Saracens should have been a man down for 55 minutes of this game, how the Davies yellow card wasn't a red is a mystery - direct head contact with force like that and no mitigation has been a red card offence for at least a couple of seasons now, Barnes bottled the call here. Tigers would have been out of sight long before the end of the game had the laws been applied correctly.
The Scott one was even worse so it evened out
@@Tom_Harding First, the Scott one was nowhere near as bad, Vunipola ran into Scott leading with the head - Scott wasn't moving into the tackle, he was static. Second, it happened with five minutes to play. Nothing was evened out at all.
@@linalmeemow the Scott one had mitigation so would have been a yellow
@@thealien4372 Absolutely, the mitigation being Scott was static and not moving into the tackle. The law needs to be looked at again, there has to be some onus on the ball carrier to look after their own welfare, I can't see how Scott could have avoided a card while making that tackle.
@@Tom_Harding are you blind?
What a thriller it was. Well done, Tigers! 👏🏻
Premership finals never disappoint! What a game
Absolutely brilliant game with 🐯 winners
Congratulations Tigers but Davis should’ve got a red card the rules state that any contact with the head in a dangerous way is a red Card so how can The referee and TMO deemed shoulder to the chops is not dangerous yeah and my name is Eddie Jones lol
So glad Leicester pulled it off,deserved it for the season they had 🔥
Watching Saracens players bereft after the whistle.....😁....watching Tom Young's lift the Cup....😭....
I don't like either club, but for Tom Young's, all love and respect.
Absolutely agree. Arguably Leicester had more emotional reasons for winning that trophy.
One of the craziest game I have ever seen
2 top class teams in this final divided by one play in the end - well done Sarries for getting back to competing in every way and Leicester maybe just slightly hungrier with 2 S African try scorers and man of the match. rugby was the winner 👍
WHAT YOU GOING TO DO TO ME JACK! get your squad after me, go after the ssi check, then you going watch me stave and die., are you jack!
You're right, I just realized that Mario updated his favorite way to tackle ED and it's crazy! Although what he previously talked about was pretty decent, it was difficult to follow, I just go'ogled the latest in Mario Volpstein's Erections at Will, it's so much simpler and potent now!
So glad tigers won! They deserve it
Farrell so over rated so pls go France.He gave away a breakaway try,kick directly into touch twice whilst also doin some good stuff,tackling low & strongly.But Leics completely dominated the set piece and if they not knock the ball on in Sarries 22 4 times they would have won by 20 points.
Was at the game and saw we kicked far too much to the best aerial fullback in the league. Counted maybe one kick off Farrell in the second half that didn’t hit Steward and we regathered it. Back three didn’t step up to the occasion and had Billy V taking majority of the high balls. Gutted cos we could’ve won it at the end, but we go again next season
Well done to Leiceseter Tigers. Best team in the Premiership by far.
Wouldn't say by far, but definitely best team. Saracens hunting them down for 1st place.
I'd like to express my sincere gratitude to all the Leicester players and coaching staff for delivering the best season of rugby with an grandstand finish. Montoya, Weise, Kelly, Steward, Potter, Burns, Chessum Reffel have all at times been outstanding, well for most of the season to be fair. Special thanks to our departing Captain, a born leader Ellis Genge, sad you are going, good luck with your future and I hope everything goes well for you and George Ford, the little maestro, pulling the strings all season, his best season so far in my opinion, sad you are leaving us too, good luck with your future! Finally the backroom staff of Steve Borthwick, Kevin Sinfield et Al. Onwards and upwards after the incredible success of this season. 🙌
He who has ears, let him hear
Jesus is coming back a lot of people have been ignoring the warnings since 2020 and the only person you’re hurting by doing that is yourself and you’re family
God is doing so much and has done so much for you to wake up and understand the times and season you’re living in so you can repent and be saved
it’s like the days of noah. God sending his servants in love because God loves you to warn you before judgment comes and yes of course human nature
Human beings ignoring God just like the days Noah mockers and scoffers laughing at the preaching of the word
scoffing at the preachers and persecuting those that come in love and share in love
scoffing at the word of God and all this scoffing and mocking even after all that you’ve seen since 2020 and have experienced
Yet everyday life continuing people oblivious to the coming judgement upon this world like the days of noah and ignoring everything that they’ve seen and are seeing
ignoring the fact that there’s a war happening in Ukraine which could potentially lead to nuclear war also ignoring the fact that Israel is about to go to war with Iran and China is about to go to war with Twain
Ignoring the fact that food prices are rising aswell as fuel prices there’s talks of worldwide famines by 2023 new diseases monkeypox after we just had a virus cause havoc on this world for two years and now we have a new one
yet people are choosing to ignore all this signs when the bible told you that this would happen in the last days
A time prophesied by Jesus - a time worser then anything that’s happened in this world yet you can still be saved out of that time and out of the tribulation and it’s only through Jesus that you can be saved from the wrath to come and from hell and from eternal Separation from God because of you’re sins for the wages of sin is death but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus
you’re in the middle of a spiritual warfare light - against -darkness and you have no idea how great or wicked that darkness is nor what that darkness is doing or planning for you
the Lord Jesus Christ is coming back to judge this world and to put everything right
God’s will is for all to be saved and for none to perish but time is running out this is not the time to be running away from God but rather to God and for my brothers and sisters in Christ
my fellow Christians don’t play church you’re either with Christ or you’re not beloved. Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. Whoever sows to please their flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life. Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers.
you’re either in the light or in the darkness you’re either on Gods side or Satan’s side beloved Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them.
Beloved You have to pick up you’re cross and follow Jesus and deny yourself daily and crucify your flesh daily and be holy because God is holy offer you’re body as a living sacrifice holy and pleasing unto God beloved strive i repeat strive ! to enter through the narrow gate for many will try but will not be able too
This message is shared out of love to everyone so you can be saved
So Repent and give you’re life to Jesus accept him as you’re Lord and saviour and receive forgiveness and salvation through Christ Jesus
Acts 4.12
And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved
John 14:6
6 Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me
God bless
sarries next season
Just love SBs over the top reaction 😎😎😎
Why would genge go to Bristol Bears 🐻 must be getting paid more 🤔
He's a Bristol boy, wants to be closer to his family. Can't blame him for that, just happy to have had him at Tigers while we did.
Taking a pay cut apparently and moving back to his family - I wish him well once a Tiger always a Tiger.
well done Leicester. You did a really good job
If it was a prop on a 9 it would have been red…
that right, jack, that right, you going punish me becuase i wont do incest really
Legendary game! 🙌
Morne steyn stuff ! There was some unreal rugga thise weekend
I'm a Tigers fan so I'm bias but that year was there any team more deserving to win the title than the Tigers.
Still can't believe we chose a penalty 🤦♂️
With five minutes to go, three down and a Tiger heading to the bin? It was absolutely the logical choice.
@@linalmeemow so logical that we lost, look at what they did near the end of the first half, same distance and they sent it. We just didn’t take risks, we were settling for a draw in a final. Even when we got the ball back from kick off, WE KEPT ON KICKING, no logic
@@watts1881 You levelled the score with 5 minutes to go and a man advantage. It's cup final rugby, you play the percentages. It was absolutely the right decision even if it didn't work out, and they'd take that same decision every time.
@@linalmeemow but it clearly didn’t work, and even so what did we do after to even put us in a position to get more points, did we run the ball, did we hold onto the ball for than 30 seconds. I would of much rather went out fighting, either scoring a try and having to defend on the line for 10 minutes like 2011 and either winning or losing, than scoring a penalty and it all it would take is a drop goal or a penalty from our undisciplined team. I want to see fight, we had no fight
@@watts1881 well what If you managed to hold on till extra time and scored and won then it would have been fine the penalty was the right call but form the kick off was the problem, they should have held on to the ball for the remainder of the game
I was there when it started
How
What a day absolutely world-class🎉🎉🏆
SA first 15 loose forwards....Kolisi, PSTD, Wiese. SA 2nd 15 loose forwards...Marcel Coetzee, Hanro Liebenberg , Evan Roos. SA 3rd 15 loose forwards...Elrigh Louw, Deon Fourie, Cobus Wiese/Dan Du Preez.
These Yellows are stupid ... Ruins the game
Absolutely deserved they were top of the table from the get go until the end the best team in the world.
In the world?
@@jamesbywater Yep you heard it the BEST IN THE WORLD
@@Theemptythroneistaken Love the enthusiasm, Sir. But I humbly believe it is possible that a South African or NZ-based club could potentially beat Leicester.
@@jamesbywater Maybe who knows.
Well done boys🏆 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
LOL, until recently I hadn't realized that Mario updated his favorite way to tackle ED and it's a relief! Although what he previously suggested was pretty good, it was a real pain to follow... go'ogle Mario's Thunderous Erections, you'll see why it's so much easier and potent now!
Up the tigers you absolute heroes
So this is how Tigers repay Saracens for stopping them being relgated. Harsh ;)
South Africa is becoming the Brazil of rugby . your top players playing all over the world in other countries still you have enough depth to win a urc . crazy . the last figure was there is across the world almost 200 + south Africans playing professional rugby .
Ohhhh I see it now! I was so aggrieved during the game that Potter's tackle on Faz at 0:35 was called late. That was such an outrageously good tackle. Now, on rewatching it, the TMO didn't call that one late, he called the one before it late! You can see it just in the background at 0:50. But oh man, what a beautiful tackle by Potter.
Well played, Tigers!
I observed that in both this final and the Super Rugby Pacific final over the weekend both refs exercised common sense and used yellow cards and not reds when ruling on accidental contact with the head.
I'm a Saracens fan and I was at the Game although disappointed I have to say The best team won Leicester stopped us from playing and beat us at our own kicking game and thoroughly deserved there win and title so we'll done. I also have to say how nice the Tigers fans were a credit to our sport.
Well done champs hopefully we will be back to face you again but hopefully a different result 😉 😆
What a load of kicking rubbish, if this is the new rugby it’s doomed. Officials were boardline bias if not incompetent, independent chiefs fan,
Farrel made this about sticking it to the teams that didn't like there cheating thanks tiger for letting them know they not forgiven you want to make amends start be giving up all the trophies to the club's that won them and no I'm not a Exeter fan it works in the Olympics and Cycling.
The second Leicester try was so cleverly worked. The way it sucked in the forwards defensive pod, left the smallest defenders on the blind side and Itoje effectively taken out the defensive line. Brilliant.
Would have been a travesty for Leicester not to win this. Imagine topping the league all season then losing the title in one game. The playoff format needs to be canned. You can play well all season then lose the title in 80 minutes. Just doesn't make sense.
Union fans, why do league players make such good union coaches? Genuine question
This shoulder to head contact rule is getting ridiculous, two extremely innocuous tackles that resulted in yellow cards.
What a game
This was the best game of rugby I’ve watched in years, it had everything and really could have gone either way
A real heart-in-the-mouth game!
Red all season odd for barns to bottle the right call
yeah that's what I was thinking they are both reds
Adam, I disagree with you there. First one, definite red. Second one, Gloucester had a similar call easier in the season where because the defender "only" braced into the contact and got knocked back it was only a yellow.
I guess there's still got to be a degree of players looking after themselves and not running head first into a braced opponent occupying a space
The first half was incredibly tedious but that second half more than made up for it.
can someone explain why the first yellow card wasnt a red? was at the match so couldnt hear ref
Not a fan of Leicester but hell am I glad that Sarries did not win
Freddie Burns.
Hall of Fame inductee?
Wow.
In case anyone's interested, I made a highlights video of Tigers' season. Enjoy!

Great to see Kevin sinfield defence working those lines.
L!
Squidgy Rugby predicted this 🥲
Fairly low risk tactical kicking strangulation style rugby final. Was intense and interesting seeing similar styles play against each other. Dont think that style will grow the game though beyond current supporter numbers. Very happy tigers came out on top! Absolutely deserved and the best team all season.
Finals tend to be this way its very nervy and nobody wants to make a mistake
Complete kicking borefest.
Crusaders would hammer this team.
Crusaders are the Sarries of the Southern Hemisphere.
Change my mind.
you obviously know nothing about rugby 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yeah id like to see Leicester play Crusaders or Saracens at the Stonex. They'd get destroyed by the fans alone
@@JamesHall-xb7dw Tigers only lost by seven the last time they visited the Stonex. Not exactly "destroyed."
Bravo aux Tigers fromage France
ナイスドロップゴール🏉
Great final. Awesome display of rugby.
Love it when Farrell - gets done.. Go Tigers..
In all tree finals yesterday there was a drop goal.
Always great seeing sarries lose
Greatest sport in the world
Premiership Rugby
Penalty try for black on the ground taking out the chaser after the charge down?
obviously not, the result stands
