It is time for Planet Rugby’s Sunday Social, your quirky recap of the serious and not so serious talking points from the past week’s action.

Thursday was a memorable day for Wales and Lions centre Jonathan Davies as his horse won the Welsh Grand National.

Swiftly on to the weekend’s action and it was great to see so many games being sold-out as fans came out in their numbers.

The supporters were treated to some great games but at Ashton Gate on Friday it was late drama that silenced Bristol fans.

Wasps’ social media team clearly couldn’t control themselves as Nizaam Carr’s brilliant try helped them to a vital away win.

There was also entertainment aplenty at Murrayield on Saturday as Darcy Graham’s late score put the seal on a 29-19 triumph.

Like Wasps, Edinburgh were thrilled with the finish as this home victory levels up the 1872 Cup battle up at one win apiece.

There was more to come too as at Twickenham a Leicester fightback broke Harlequins’ hearts as this late score made it 30-30.

‘Tis the season and everything but this young fan in the background was clearly either celebrating or drowning his sorrows.

From downing lager to champagne rugby and who does it better than Finn Russell? The Racing 92 star showing his quality…

Finally, from the sublime to ridiculous as Bath centre Jamie Roberts holds his hands up here. We believe you, Jamie (wink).
