Leicester Tigers

i think their u20's are their capture team. meaning he won't qualify unless he has english parents or grandparents? I think thats why Hanro isn't qualified? If he is on a 4 year contract - will he qualify for England through the residency rule? It's now a 5 year residency requirement So unless he ha...

Interesting point this, my understanding was that he would be eligible for AUS due to residency, but as you say if not born there, or no aussie parents or grandparents, you could well be on the money. I'm still scratching my head re Porter being in OZ, yes I know possibly about injury/family etc, bu...

It’s a minimum of 3 years to change nationality. He played for England in the summer. Also isn’t he injured? Perfect time for him to head back and see some family and refresh? He’s 33 but age is becoming less of a barrier, but may indicate one of our current centres is moving on. Key sentence for me...

I think you have to take three each of hooker, scrum half and fly half, these are specialist positions two are needed for each match day squad so an injury to just one would mean sending for a replacement. Obviously the same applies to.props but you may get away with five in the party if one can pl...

Why doesn't it? He was totally honest with Tigers throughout his tenure.

I did hear a suggestion that Eddie Jones had been in touch with Potter saying it might be to his advantage to be playing in Australia,.of course that might mean we could try a little harder to keep Watson. He’s said his priority is to play for England. Given how Borthwick rates him there’s a good c...

I mean he is a McKeller guy played wing for the brumbies during his term as head coach for them I did put it in here for a reason but my source wasn't solid The fact that rob hasn't posted here since 2009, just to come up with a less than solid rumour would be funny though. I can’t blame you for th...

He’s signed for us

Source?

A close friend, who’s got the inside via the chairman of the members committee that owns the club (chiefs).

I was just wondering if anybody else knew about our flyhalfs debut on Sunday against Leeds? He made is debut against his brother also a 10 and the son of Mike ford! Another think just to mention he is only 16 and became the youngest player ever to make a professional debut! Hats off! And watch this ...

One of the fastest in a tigers shirt was Nmandi Ezuliki early 00's. But Tom Varndell is the fastest for sure.

In the world you cant look past Tonderai Chavanga for South Africa. In reports in the camp he is just meant to blitz Habana! Check him out, hes a joke!

My mate plays for nuneaton who beat them 95-0. They have lost their money essentially and are refusing to pay players so they have a lot of level 9 players. essentially midlands 5 and colts players. It isnt safe and they have to be taken out of the league!

easily the best blindside in the world. Could you imagine a back row of him, Mccaw and Parisse!? Unreal.

Zak Feaunati is playing Jonah Lomu in it.

all i can say is please keep him.

he is an exceptional talent...Fact.... lets all do our best to make sure he gets his confidence back up to where it used to be and he can demolish teams!
