Re: Please get behind your team v Exeter
Agree about Pollard v Sale but I’m sure he took a couple of knocks early on then another huge tackle by him late in the first half meant he was struggling. I just wonder if it’s worth putting him on the bench with Montoya and Cole just to have some impact late on! Risky maybe but then again if we ca...

Re: Dan Mckellar
We might have lots of international talent but the hugely talented Henderson has been out all season; JVP, Martin and Chessum also missing through injury. Pollard has never hit anywhere near the heights of the World Cup but I’m not sure he’s ever been fully fit. Basset, Simmonds, Watson so unlucky w...

Brilliant. Let’s hope all the home support really get behind the Tigers.

Re: Karl Dickson
Bit different to our game management last week but Sarries have more of their key players fit! And Bristol aren’t getting away with so many things compared to last week.

Please get behind your team v Exeter
Yes we all hate losing and I too moan then feel guilty I have but after getting back last night I couldn’t believe how negative the posts are! I’ve said it many times along with others: Borthwick took ages to get things right then when he had he followed it by gradually taking all of the main coache...

Re: Tigers v Sale (A) - Premiership - Friday 10th May 2024 - KO: 7:45pm
Just got back from Sale. Lots to be proud of: Steward was immense: got to be captain next season!Tonight Shilcock far better than Pollard; Kata and Martin superb as were Carnduff and Heyes when they came on. Manu and Ford: World Class. Reffing as admitted by Sale fans around us was very poor but sli...

Re: LEICESTER TIGERS 2023/24 - KANGAROO MCKELLER: Do you come from a land down under? (Squad thread pt 2)
I think Vanes and especially FTT will really push both Montoya and Clare for the hookers spot as both are more mobile, have decent hands, can tackle hard but fair and can hook the ball! Henderson has been a huge loss as he is a sort of Tom Croft and was playing very well in the Premiership Cup. Beet...

Re: Tigers v Sale (A) - Premiership - Friday 10th May 2024 - KO: 7:45pm
Sale is/was the perfect opportunity to get players ready for next season as we rarely win there and even the optimistic Tom Varndell thinks we will lose.
Still, I travel up in the hope those that are leaving will give their all: Sale are always fired up against us.

Re: Tigers v Sale (A) - Premiership - Friday 10th May 2024 - KO: 7:45pm
We have, apart from Gloucester, had the most injuries of any squad but recently Gloucester has had a very settled squad which reflects how they’ve done pretty well in the last 6 games. I was hoping to travel up to Sale feeling exciting to see some of the youngsters from last Friday being integrated ...

Re: 23/24 Injury/Suspension/Absent International List
I’ve said it before so here we go again:George Martin is Borthwick’s go to player as witnessed at the end of the 6 Nations. If sense prevailed players like George Martin and Earle would be rested this Summer but they won’t be. Chessum to hasn’t looked fully fit since returning from England! Get well...

Re: Tigers v Sale (A) - Premiership - Friday 10th May 2024 - KO: 7:45pm
Off to Sale as usual but disappointed in that squad! No FTT for example and why not include other youngsters in the squad: I’d have started with FTT a ) because he’s more dynamic and b) to gain more experience for next season. That pack, without Chessum too, worries me as Sale have one of the best p...

Ben spent a good bit of that preseason supporting Tom and the family.
It wasn’t in my eyes a pre season.
Thanks Ben for what you’ve done and will do for us.
And great to see Tom on the Crumbie v Bristol.

For the first time in many seasons Ben Youngs will have a proper Summer to first enjoy being with his family then a full preseason with Tigers. He has been a great player for us and England and I for one would like to see him play like Manu always does, with a smile on his face, giving his all as ba...

Re: Cockers thoughts on the Prem etc
Well it’s not a Leicester thing as Saints’ fans weren’t that loud until Kata got sent off. Best noise in my experience this season was at The Stoop but I didn’t get to the Gloucester Premiership Cup Final! But there’s been nothing like the noise from matches like Freddie Tuilagi’s last gasp try v Gl...
