Paddy Jackson sets up slick backs move in France

Perpignan scored a fantastic set play try from the back of a scrum against Grenoble to help secure just their second win of the Top 14 season.

The move was started by ex-Ireland fly half Paddy Jackson and resulted in winger Jonathan Bousquet running 30 metres to score the opening try of the game in the seventh minute at Stade Aimé Giral, Perpignan.

This was the home side’s only try of the game and was followed up by a conversion and five penalty kicks from full back Enzo Selponi, helping Perpignan go on to win 22-16. 

They now sit eight points below Grenoble in last place, but with six games still to play in the domestic league, this win gives Perpignan hope of survival.
