Leicester Tigers: Battles for places has kept us on our toes,...

Every man in the Leicester Tigers squad has to be on his mettle this season.

That was evident in the 36-17 win over Newcastle Falcons last week as director of rugby Richard Cockerill was able to send on replacements without in any way weakening the 15 on the pitch.

Full-back Niall Morris said the players are well aware of the need to stay on their toes, whether it is a training session or match action that they are involved in.

The 26-year-old started at full-back against Newcastle and, like the rest of his team-mates, put in a solid showing, particularly for the first game of the season.
