Ed Slater's second try against Sale Sharks on Saturday has been voted the Aviva Premiership Try of the Week for Round 17.

The Tigers lock received possession on the halfway line and picked a line through the Sale defence to score at the right-hand corner.

The try gave Tigers a 27-3 lead at half-time and set them on their way to a 48-10 bonus-point win at Welford Road. You can click here to visit the Tigers YouTube channel and watch his try again.

Slater follows Dan Bowden, who won the Try of the Week in Round 16 for his score against Saracens. Bowden's try was also voted Try of the Month for February on Sunday night’s Aviva Premiership highlights show on ITV.
