Focus piece from Charlie Morgan on The Times

"Piece on Henry Pollock. A lot of his stats have improved. He’s conceding fewer pens. That’s so impressive given extra scrutiny (and hostility). Just think he’s got to keep the main thing the main thing."

Interview with Leeds Rhinos chairman Paul Caddick

Caddick loves union (although he’d make penalties worth two points).

- Would stage games at Headingley for a Yorkshire franchise

- Would help Newcastle or Sale formalise links with Yorkshire production line

- Would house Yorkshire academy training base

8 - Charlie Atkinson made 8 line breaks for Gloucester against Sale, no one has made more in a Prem Rugby match since Opta have recorded this data (since 2008/09), while his tally of 13 defenders beaten was the joint most for a fly half. Silky.

Fissler Confidential: Contract tabled for England star Tommy Freeman - Saints have offered a renewal already.

Northampton Saints are understood to have tabled an early contract offer to England winger Tommy Freeman, who will be entering the final year of his contract at Franklin’s Gardens later this summer.

Freeman, who scored his 20th try in 22 appearances for club and country this season during yesterday’s thrashing against arch-rivals Leicester Tigers at Welford Road, has scored 75 in 115 games for Saints.

The indications are that talks are going well, no problems are anticipated at this stage, and they could be successfully concluded before the end of the season, as Saints seek to avoid him being able to talk to rival clubs in July.
