JOHN AFOA Bristol tighthead v ELLIS GENGE Leicester loosehead

A hard day for Genge to make his comeback after six months out injured but he was one of Leicester’s better performers. No issues at the scrum, movement around the park looked okay and he put in solid tackles. Afoa’s careless first half sin-binning could have cost his side but didn’t. Other than that he contributed to a fine all-round team performance.
