Leicester wing Gabriel Hamer-Webb bagged five tries, yet his mind was already on the next one as he sets his sights on club and country glory.
Most players would be content to celebrate after scoring five tries. Leicester Tigers wing Gabriel Hamer-Webb is not wired that way. By his own account, even with a huge haul in the books, his thoughts drifted straight to the one that got away.
That hunger sums up the finisher Tigers have on their hands. Hamer-Webb has built his reputation on sharp movement off the wing, good timing on his lines and a nose for the tryline. He talks about the game like someone who sees every missed chance as unfinished business.
The ambition does not stop at Welford Road. Hamer-Webb is open about wanting to make his mark for Leicester while pushing his case on the international stage. In a competitive wing market, consistent end product is the currency, and he knows it.
For Tigers fans, that mix of confidence and appetite is a welcome sign. If a five-try performance only leaves him wanting more, opposing defences have reason to be nervous.
