From 1993 Leicester enjoyed a remarkable nine trophies in 10 years. This streak started when a young pack featuring Rowntree, Cockerill, Garforth, Poole, Johnson and Back defeated London Scottish, Nottingham, Exeter and Northampton to set up a Twickenham date with Harlequins who they defeated 23–16 in the 1993 cup final. In the 1993–94 season, Tigers made the cup final but this time Leicester fell short to rivals Bath, losing 21–9. Leicester were also runners-up in the league to Bath.
