Why are international cricketers wages outstripping rugby?

I appreciate that rugby players wages have been discussed before but with the recent announcement of the impending huge increase in England cricketers wages I thought the debate should be reopened. Keeping the huge amounts earned in football, golf and tennis (one big English tournament a year)out of...

Re: Harry Ellis

The Ospreys lock Evans back heeled him from a maul after the whistle had gone and dislocated his knee cap. Can't remember the year but think it was in 2004. I vaguely remember it being a cheap shot! He then had some ligament trouble over the years cumulating in it finally going (cruciate ligament) v...

Re: Leicesters backs ???

Sorry for all you Tait fans but he has been a very bad buy. It is a known fact that he doesn't tackle, which I thought was a main ingredient in the game of rugby. Murphy must be at fullback for the quarter final. Pity Tigers can't do a Saints and go for the likes of a George North. Still there's the...

Re: Tigers-Bath aftermatch discussion

If you actually watch the games you might well have noticed that Tait has missed the last tackle on the players who have scored the last four tries against us. Fair enough if you think that attacking flair outweighs defencive qualities. I am not suggesting that he shouldn't be Murphys long term repl...

Re: Today's Game

Goneva: Classiest player we have signed for many a year. well done Mr. Cohen. Tait: Where is he? When will he play? Can he tackle now? Not so well done Mr. Cohen Ford: Lack of match practice, that's all. Salvi: Great to have a proper number 7 for again but why give him the responsibility of being th...

Re: Why is Crane Captain?

Don't blame him for being captain as no doubt the director of rugby makes that choice. I would hope that a good coach would understand how important a good captain can be. Unfortunately I don't think that the Tigers currently have a really good captain within the squad. Succesful teams sometimes hav...

Re: Tigers v Quins

Some good comments. Quins showed how good they were yesterday. They realized three or fours years ago that keeping the ball in hand at the tackle was the way forward, but Tigers haven't realized that yet and go to ground most of the time. Not too demoralised just disappointed. still waiting for an a...

Re: We have to keep Agulla- all threads merged

Fact is that it is Cohen decision. He doesnt want Horatio - full stop. However he chased Matthew tait for years and look what we got - Matthew who? If Ayetza can stay and play for Argentina, then so can Horatio. We let all the best go including Westeheizen (spelt wrong I know). Best match winning fl...

Re: Ford MUST replace Flood

Ford has everything and is exceptional for his age. Unfortunately in team sports you have to be a "Chosen One". Johnny Wilkinson, David Beckham are two from the recent era. Ford was ahead of Farrell in the England Age groups but that doesnt count now. Yes Floody has to play in the bigger g...

Does the Salaty Cap really excist?

Does the salary Cap really excist? There seems to be many complaints regarding the salary cap in the Premiership and how it destroys a clubs overall performances. Many of the arguments seem to come from sides such as leicester who are just not performing the way they were some five to ten years ago....

Brilliant game and shows why rugby is the worlds greatest game - well done to both teams. Man of the Match: MAFI Other great displays: SMITH,SALVI and the front row.
