Re: Tigers v Newcastle Falcons (H) - Premiership - Sunday 3rd December 2023 - KO: 3-00pm

Nice to see Moroni back at Welford Rd - did well for us. A shame we let him go.. Hoping ,of course ,for the win. I watched him play for falcons last weekend and spoke to him at the end and said we all miss him at tigers and he gave me a hand shake and thanked me! Seems like a lovely bloke shame we ...

Re: LEICESTER TIGERS 2023/24 - Crocodile McKeller: Men at Work

Agreed. Bassett all day and every time for me. He took his try brilliantly on Friday v Sale. Not sure Kata will be anything other than 3rd choice: he just isn’t Premiership standard. I'm not sure this is a fair statement, Kata's record more than speaks for itself: he was extremely good in his rugby...

Re: LEICESTER TIGERS 2022/23 Squad and transfers thread part 2: The Lion, the Wig and the Wardrobe

https://www.devonlive.com/sport/rugby/rugby-news/leicester-tigers-set-announce-signing-8440127?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter Thanks for this TFS! This sounds promising for Kata. The article believes that we have lost Watson. If we have, I would really like some more money put into a ser...

Nah Kata is done deal Looking at leavers he’s more likely imo Saumaki replacement Shillcock def seems lined up for 10 cover now Gopperth is going. How do we know this is confirmed, tried to look it up and haven’t seen anything? Confirmed by Kata himself. He’s injured for around 2 months then joinin...

Re: LEICESTER TIGERS 2022/23 - Prisoner of Oadby Pre-Season

There’s been a huge amount of talk about potentially another winger coming in for us with some of the possibly outgoing wingers not replaced. I was wondering if anyone was opposed to taking a punt on Christian Wade as he only signed a one year deal with racing in September, very similar to Ashton i...

Re: Tigers v Bristol (H) - Saturday 25th March 2023 - KO 12:30pm

I think it would be harsh to drop Brown for Steward as he’s come in and played out of his skin, on form, you’d probably say Brown playing better (obviously different levels to the competition each of them played in). Especially if we’re looking to keep brown on for another year, it would not help t...

Re: LEICESTER TIGERS 2022/23 - Prisoner of Oadby Pre-Season

Happy about Shillcock he is quality.3 bargain basement Ex Worcester players plus the veteran Basset. Not impressed and what has happened to OHC I thought he was a banker? Must say I am worried about the state of our recruitment Totally agree I feel like we’re not improving on our losses, I understa...

Re: LEICESTER TIGERS 2022/23 - Prisoner of Oadby Pre-Season

We have already lost Hegarty Nadolo Wigglesworth Tbf Hegarty -> Shillcock Nadolo -> OHC? Wigglesworth -> Whiteley Ashton -> Bassett Burns -> Atkinson Snyman -> Hatherell I like these replacements a lot and understand the signings but are we really getting a huge improvement on the squad this year w...

Re: LEICESTER TIGERS 2022/23 - Prisoner of Oadby Pre-Season

I’m still slightly confused over some of the contract lengths of the former wasps players such as Koch, Odogwu and Hougaard and lots of others who are all high quality players who may be available for next year? They could easily solve some of our issues with players being away for England eg Kelly,...

Re: LEICESTER TIGERS 2021/22 SQUAD/TRANSFERS/CONTRACTS: Lord of the Mauls

There’s mention of Finn Russell on the rugby pod from Jim Hamilton. That would be a huge shock and he’d bring a huge difference to our game but does he suit the Borthwick game plan?
