Aviva Premiership: Bath fly-half George Ford ready for clash with Leicester Tigers

Bath fly-half George Ford insists he has nothing to prove in Saturday's Aviva Premiership clash with former club Leicester.

Ford made an impressive debut for Bath in last weekend's 21-0 victory at Newcastle, kicking 11 points, and he paid credit to the Bath pack, who dominated despite the difficult conditions at Kingston Park. "It was a good start for us. We got there and the weather was pretty horrendous but the lads, especially the forwards, were brilliant," said Ford. "The forwards put all the hard work in to earn penalties, so what you want to do as a goal kicker is pay them back otherwise they won't be happy."
