This week’s roundup also features kayaking over a waterfall, a one-second heavyweight bout and the perfect flip throw-in
1) The Premiership rugby union season kicks off this weekend. There were some brilliant tries last season. Here are eight of the best of them. There were some shuddering tackles too. Saracens are the team to beat in 2018-19, having been crowned champions for the fourth time after beating Exeter 27-10 with a sizzling display at Twickenham in June. Relive highlights here. Sarries won the Premiership Rugby Sevens final this summer too, a tournament that was arguably more fun when rugby league teams such as Wigan entered it. Here’s Shaun Edwards’s Wigan silencing Twickenham by humbling Lawrence Dallaglio’s Wasps in 1996.
2) A young Marseille fan is invited to take part in the ceremonial kick-off against Rennes, which involves kicking the ball once, but instead goes rogue and dribbles the length of the pitch, scores and celebrates with top-off wild abandon. And here’s an absolutely sensational strike from the Northern Premier League, where Pablo Mills has probably wrapped up Mickleover Sports FC’s goal-of-the-season award before the end of August.
