Sackey prepares for collision with Samoan wrecking-ball

WASPS winger Paul Sackey has demanded extra tackling practice this week to prepare him for tomorrow’s Heineken Cup final clash with Leicester wrecking-ball Alesana Tuilagi.

Tuilagi spearheaded Leicester’s 44-16 rout of Gloucester last Saturday with a destructive display of running that helped the Tigers complete the second leg of an unprecedented treble.

The rampaging Samoan winger, who weighs 19 stones, scored two tries and caused havoc whenever he touched the ball in what proved a traumatising Guinness Premiership final for Gloucester.
