Rugby: Blow for Gloucester as 17-point haul by Ross inspires Leeds

Leeds 22 Gloucester 18

In front of their largest-ever attendance for a Premiership match, almost 7,500, the Scottish star piloted Leeds to a hard-fought but determined victory that increases their chances of retaining a place in the Heineken Cup next season.

For Gloucester this was a messy and ill-disciplined defeat that leaves them off the pace in search of European qualification.
