Saracens prop Mako Vunipola relishing top-of-the-table clash against Harlequins

Saracens prop Mako Vunipola believes Sunday's mouth-watering Aviva Premiership clash against Harlequins can be the perfect tonic to cure his Six Nations blues.

Vunipola's form this season has seen him touted as a potential tourist with the British and Irish Lions in the summer. But the 22-year-old, who previously played for Bristol, is refusing to get carried away. "It is fantastic to be mentioned in terms of the tour however I can't let it affect me and it is not something I can think about," he added. "If I stand still then others will move past me, so I have to keep working hard and performing for Saracens." Mako Vunipola was speaking to Sky Sports on receiving the Gatorade Game Changer Award for February. Gatorade are the official performance partner to Premiership Rugby. www.gatorade.co.uk/ @GatoradeUK
