Former Swire Shipping Fijian Drua and Bristol Bears centre Kalaveti Ravouvou gained 230 metres over the weekend when they thumped Leicester Tigers 54-24 over the weekend.

Only one other player has gained as many metres in a Premiership Rugby match since Opta start recording this data from 2008-2009.

That player is Worcester Warriors utility back Chris Pennell back in 2013 where he gained 233 metres in their game against Harlequins.

In that game Ravouvou had 18 carries, beat 10 defenders and scored two tries.

Fellow Fijian, Viliame Mata also got his name on the score-sheet after receiving a pass from Ravouvou.

Ravouvou and Mata have been named in the starting lineup for tomorrow’s game against the Sale Sharks at 7.45am.
