Leicester chalked up their biggest victory over Northampton at a sold-out Mattioli Woods Welford Road as they handed Prem leaders Saints their first league defeat of 2026 - and only their second of the season.
George Martin, Ollie Hassell-Collins, Adam Radwan and Freddie Steward also scored tries as the Tigers closed to only a point behind second-placed Bath as the race for a top-two finish hots up. Tommy Freeman scored twice to become Saints' record try scorer in the Prem with 52 either side of a George Hendy touchdown.
