Leicester Tiger’s wing Chris Aston became the first player in Premiership history to break the 100-try mark in English Rugby’s topflight.
The long-time Northampton Saint and Saracen secured his 101st try as he crossed for a hattrick in his side’s dominant 62 – 19 wins over the Exeter Chiefs today.
Now firmly ahead as the top try scorer in the league’s history, the 36-year-old marked the occasion with a sublime celebration.
Crossing the line, Ashton leapt into the stands, where he joined the Leicester faithful to celebrate the momentous achievement.
Sometimes you've just got to sit back and admire... ?
