Leicester Tigers

Clearly we are better going forward than defending. I still have concerns at 12 & 13. Ok when Manu is fit at 13 but options otherwise seem somewhat limited. Taute, Reid, Viljoen, Eastmond, Manu, Worth, Hardwick all cover 12/13, which isn't bad in terms of volume. I can see a 10/12 axis of Ford & Re...

Hoping for a good win, shame I can’t attend but i have recorded the game on BT.

Is it on BT Sport or do you mean the highlights?

I wonder if BFG stands for Bath's Favourite Grumpy and that is why he/she is working so hard to deny White a perfectly good try

Lavanini is apparently a very good gymnast who specialises in floor exercises/ tumbling.

He's always been well known for some assaults.

[I'll get my coat...]

No I saw his last gymnastics competition and it was the pummel horse he excelled at

Sorry that was bad I know

:smt023 I missed the match live and am now watching on replay and I believe that Lavanîni’s tackle was clumsy. As has been mentioned above, Tigers’ coaches will be working on tackle technique - particularly with Lavanini and I remain convinced that Lavanini will bring that extra edge to Tigers’ forw...

Had a nice chat with EW and JT at the riders tonight. EW is looking to be fit for the Stains game and JT maybe the week after. I’ve had a couple of sherry’s, but one said they had broke a bone in their hand, hence the lack of involvement so far. EW, JT??? Who are you referring to? Not all users are...

If Geordan was being replaced he would have left at the end of last season Tell that to MOC he was sacked for gross incompetence, this is a planned addition to the coaching team, if Geordan was being replaced he would have gone and Mike Ford appointed caretaker until after the World Cup If you beli...

I'm old and don't do online banking either. I do have a card and use it grudgingly. I used to work in IT and believe it or not I don't think IT systems are infallible.

Plus relying on purely electronic means is a means of controlling individuals, if you are into paranoia. My relative who has been in security services noted that any revolt in the UK would be cut off, quite literally, at the plug, the server, the mast etc., leaving no means to gain food except stea...

Given that Worcester are first up in the Premiership, and must be a target away win, maybe Geordan did not want to show his hand in this game in terms of individuals and tactics.

At least there was some symmetry between the teams at half time judging by the score

It makes a mockery of the system really when warm-up games are used to calculate the rankings. The system definitely needs tweaking - a team that makes it to the WC semi-finals but then loses and the loses the 3rd-4th place game is penalised more than the team they knocked out at the QF stage, just...

You're having a laugh with that first four.... :smt002 :smt002 I don't see why he is having a laugh. It is the same top 4 as me, indeed Strawclearer's blocks of 4 are all the same as mine so good man Strawlearer......and to back it up I had a tenner on Tigers to win the Premiership last season. We ...
