Leicester Tigers overpowered the
Barbarians 18 - 6 despite having two
tries disallowed in the first half.
Accurate kicking by fullback Dusty
Hare gave the Tigers the early
advantage - he put over two penalties.
But shortly before half time Scotland's
Bill Gemmill pushed through for a try
at the corner post. Gareth Davies
converted to bring the scores level.
The Tigers again opened up a six-point
lead with a try in the 46th minute
converted by Hare. The Baa-Baas created
many chances but the Tigers countered
with a fine try by Gary Adey one minute
from time. Hare again converted.
