The day after a trial of the first away section at a Premiership match, it was business as usual at Ashton Gate as green Leicester Tigers jerseys were dotted around between the blue and white hoops of Bristol Bears. Talking of business, it was business at the front and party at the back for Benhard Janse van Rensburg, but he had stiff competition for Bristol’s best mullet from the young mascot with who he ran out onto the pitch.
