Leicester Tigers

We anticipating any singings news today? Got to be this week right? Think I saw somewhere we're gathering post pre-season next week. Post pre-season? But I think I know what you mean. The official leavers list from the club did mention squads would be confirmed before pre-season commenced. Seems so...

I don't think Tommy did his future chances of Wales selection any harm at all

Well, perhaps it was a case of too many 10s and too many captains to be effective? I was working and only caught some of the game. I did think some of the bench coming on looked good. The fact that this comes at the end of a hard and long domestic season, means some folk in that England team probabl...

It seems unlikely that tigers will not replace MVS. They didn’t keep Robinson and we are light in that position. The club should have plenty of cap to play with. Feel very sad for MVS and I hope he doesn’t have to retire. The number of games he has played at the age of 26 really surprised me. Heyes...

Maybe it's going to be announced player-by-player...and they are getting the 'thank you for your service' text ready?

Let’s hope it doesn’t accelerate his departure. He might appear at the end of next season’s leaver list

Well, what will be will be. He deserves it, what 'it' may be.

I see Leicester Fainga’anuku is playing for the ABs. Surely we'll want him playing for Tigers at some point?

Thank you Tigerbeat for keeping this in its own topic. I think personally this honour for Tommy is long overdue. Well done and let’s hope you deal with that Boks No. 8

Delighted to hear Tommy is starting for Wales v Boks

In a game of lots of cards and an England win, nice try by Jed Walsh who took on scrum-half duties in part of the second half as well as fly-half. He also plays full-back (though not today) so looks like a very handy back.

Our same three - Ilione, Chessum and Walsh on the bench - are out against France tonight. On YouTube. I hope we are including Ilione in our senior team plans...

Still no sign of a definitive list of who is leaving - don't some contracts end tomorrow June 30? Seems it's not just Tigers. But it is very frustrating to see that other clubs have at least announced who is leaving even if there are still new recruits to be announced. I can only think there is lots...

... I think one of the effects of the reduced cap is that promising youngsters are going to be moved up a bit quicker if they are ready. From what I read the academy has some real talent in the centres. Does anyone know whether you still get an additional £50K for each 'home grown' player as used t...

If any leavers look at this, it's clear to me how much Tigers performance this year has been down to many more than those named in the match day 23. If you're heading to new pastures, good luck on the journey, and thanks for the ride! As with Freddie B it could well be au revoir!
