Leicester Tigers

I’m with everyone else - bored of the Manu situation. He was gone in 12 months anyhow so I would have thought that the Tigers coaching team were already planning for life without Manu - we may need to find a stopgap for 12 months or look to accelerate those plans.......on the bright side it might al...

Weddings on the pitch at half time?

Yep - that’s my recollection of rucking but I think in the modern day it just means pushing the opposition off the ball whilst it’s on floor. I would be happy if we saw more of that rather than missiling and players off their feet and past the ball which seems de rigeur these days

Let’s eulogise about our favourite Tigers players ...... and why ..... for me it Alex Tuilagi although Tom Croft is a close second. Loved nothing more than when Alex was set free on the wing with 2-3 players to beat and he dipped his left shoulder and busted through them ... a thing of brutal beauty.

The World Cup warm ups also count so I think you need to add on Manu’s involvement in these (and George , Johnny and YBY)

We don’t need relegation - we are already Championship standard

To all those saying we are only 6 points off 4th. Mathematically that maybe correct but unless something changes we are relegation fodder

And we continue to kick the ball away

Saints not only outplaying is but outthinking is. 2 experienced World Cup finalists at 9 and 10 constantly kicking the ball down the throat of Saints players whilst they are a man down. Meanwhile they kick to the corners to run the clock down

Given Cipriani’s past I think he may be talking about a different kind of cap

Can’t see why there would be any tax issues - co-investment property companies with the senior players would have to file tax returns. Any surreptitious payments to players through Sarries would still be tax deductible even if they weren’t declared to the salary cap authorities. The only dodgy eleme...

Oh how times have changed though - a few seasons ago would have wanted Wuss to win to take points of our rivals. Now I wanted Exeter to win for the same reason!

Another area we need consistency from the refs and this one is easy as it’s fairly black and white. There was an incidence in the World Cup - might have been Aus vs Wales but I forget - when despite the kick going over the posts after time was up the referee said there would be a restart. How can he...

That’s correct - it should have been the last kick of the match as penalty was definitely awarded with less than 60 seconds left. Hopefully someone has a word with Hardwick as that could have spoilt what was an excellent performance by the lad.

Agreed JP14 - don’t think he put a step right all game
