Leicester Tigers

I may have missed the posters who (I probably missed it when skipping the bickering) congratulated Northampton not only on the win and the manner in which they play the game, but also that they have built a winning team without any big name signings and by using an ex-player as head coach. They are...

Looked like a clear red to me.

Officials have had a good game IMHO. It wasn’t the ref that butchered walk in tries.

Yes!!!

+1

More concerned how they cut through our defence so easily…

Oh dear….

Can’t help thinking the lost points from the two try attempts butchered by Shilcock are going to cost us once Saints unload their bench. Don’t understand why we simply don’t play Steward at full back!!! On a positive note, Kata and Kelly are working really well together and Chessum has been immense.

I heard Steward is quite good as a full back……

Game day with the noisy neighbours. We can win this.

COME ON YOU TIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGGGGGGGGGGERS

I would’ve agreed had Martin been in there. As someone said previously "it's the hope that kills you" :smt003 Looking at those teams I’m significantly more confident of a Tigers win. It’s Derby Day - the form book gets thrown out of the window. Though that Saints bench does look formidabl...

Can’t help thinking that if we’d played that well against prem teams this season we’d be a lot higher than seventh….

Bizarrely, that was an excellent Leicester performance.

4 deliberate knocks on by Leinster I count. Two in the last few minutes! And only one ONE yellow card

How is that just a knock on? Completely deliberate hand in

Not OHC’s finest moment. But I guess that’s what happens when your wingers rarely gets passed a ball in a season

Completely agree.

Gutting. We’d just got a beautiful turnover.
