Celebrations, red cards and lineout woes. It’s the best of the weekend’s rugby tweets…
1. Leicester bounced back
Look at the size of my big mate @logoviimulipola 🤣🤣 im running for my life so he doesn’t squash me. Thanks everyone who came out to support the team was great to hear you in full voice. Great seeing some old team mates post game. pic.twitter.com/NO582cbA6N

2. Bastareaud lived up to his name…

3. People got angry at Bastareaud
Disgraceful from @BastaOfficiel – no place for cheap shots like that in the game. Faces a long ban for sure #rugby https://t.co/eZtrvegebe

8. The table.
👀 The #GallagherPrem table is starting to take shape after two rounds and there are a couple of familiar faces at the top…
Do you reckon @Saracens and @ExeterChiefs will be the top two for the rest of the season? pic.twitter.com/pjroAVGTRt
