Video: There Was More Gloriously Inventive Rugby From The Baa-Baas Vs Leicester

After delighting us over the weekend thanks to their sensational play against Australia, the Barbarians returned to action on Tuesday night in an untelevised game against Leicester Tigers. Granted it's easy to play inventive rugby when there's nothing on the line but the fact that the Baa-Baas exist for that purpose is what makes them such a great part of the game.

Thankfully there is footage of the game and it doesn't disappoint. One of our favourite moments has to be this tap and go penalty by South African scrum half Sarel Pretorious. We're not sure if we prefer this or Tomas Cubelli's attempt at the weekend.

There's also a great moment at the end of the video where Jacques Botes, playing in the last match of his career, is given a chance to end it with a chance to round off the eventual 59-26 victory for the Baa-Baas. We encourage you to watch the video but we must warn you that Leicester chose to top it off with a bit of Macklemore for some reason.
