Sale winger Mark Cueto says last Friday's win over Exeter is more important than clinching the all-time Premiership try scoring record.
Cueto's 76th try came against Exeter Chiefs and moved him above former team-mate Steve Hanley for the record, with London Wasps winger Tom Varndell hot on his heels with 71.
The win over Exeter was only Sale's third Premiership victory of the season, although they remain five points clear of safety following London Irish's victory over Saracens. Sale travel to fellow relegation candidates London Welsh this weekend.
"I don't want to be cliched but the win is the biggest thing," said Cueto to BBC Radio Manchester.
"But it's nice and it's one of those things that I'll probably look back on a year or two when I've finished and it'll be a great achievement.
"I think Tom Varndell will probably break it before I retire but it's brilliant.
"The confidence and belief was there from the past two weeks [against Exeter].
"Although it was in the LV it was still massive for the club to get those results and it's three wins on the bounce.
"If we can forget about what happened in the first part of this season and we've got to take the confidence and belief from those three games.
"We're still not out of trouble and we'll go down to Welsh next week needing another win."
