Gallagher PREM’s return delivered storylines aplenty with drama and tries galore.

The pick of the games came at Sandy Park where Fin Smith's last-gasp try earned Northampton Saints victory against Exeter Chiefs to stay top of the table.

That loss for Exeter helped the chasing pack in the race for the Play-Offs, with Bristol Bears beating Gloucester Rugby on Friday night, while Saracens put on a show away to Sale Sharks on Sunday.

In their win, Noah Caluori scored five tries, the second time he has done so against Sale this season, while Gabriel Hamer-Webb also crossed five times for Leicester Tigers in their win over Newcastle Red Bulls.

Last but not least, reigning champions Bath Rugby kept the heat on Northampton at the top with their win over Harlequins.
