Re: LEICESTER TIGERS 2023/24 - KANGAROO MCKELLER: Do you come from a land down under? (Squad thread pt 2)
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 b...

Re: Black Lions match
Seb Smith was the replacement hooker, I think. Yes, correct. Hit his throw well. First appearance for a senior Leicester team I think. Archie Vanes was originally named as the replacement hooker, did he pull out injured? This is a good result for the club, not only does it point towards a positive ...

Re: Black Lions match
I think Cusick and Edwards going does seem to potentially be a case of the club rating Allan and Myall ahead For sure, hope we actually play them & we're not in the situation of releasing them in 2 seasons for the next batch of 19 year olds showing promise! I'd have Myall or Woodward on the ben...

Re: LEICESTER TIGERS 2023/24 - KANGAROO MCKELLER: Do you come from a land down under? (Squad thread pt 2)
The rumours were we tried for Gallo but Bennetton managed to renew on a long term deal. The last few Puma props to land in the Prem have been pretty underwhelming. None of the Ayerza and Figallo standard. Bit harsh when Montoya is the best in the league at his position, Gonzalez starting every week...

Re: LEICESTER TIGERS 2023/24 - KANGAROO MCKELLER: Do you come from a land down under? (Squad thread pt 2)
I’m surprised we’ve not used Montoya’s expertise, knowledge and persuasive powers to encourage the odd promising young Argentine prop over lured by a few quid and an opportunity to improve their game against top opposition. If only we could find the new Marcos Ayerza …. Now that was a LH who comman...

Re: Leicester City Owners - Rugby investment
Sounds similar to the set up they have with running a Leicester City academy in Thailand. I think the boys study at Ratcliff College as part of it?

Re: Transfers & Rumours Non-Tigers 2022
Anyway, regardless of your opinion on that I think 6 year deals for coaches are bad moves. Makes it very difficult to manage them. There is College Football coach in America at University of Kentucky, a mid level team in the hardest division of College Football. For a long time he had either a 3 or ...

Re: Black Lions match
On Monday night, the panel made the point that one of the biggest challenges they face is to bridge the gap between Under 18's and First Team senior rugby, with the gap being so massive. This is something also made tougher without any A League like we all remember. To bridge this gap they want the ...

Re: Black Lions match
Think I'm right in saying teams are announced 10 this morning With it being a friendly, there is no set time for the teams to be released.... They sent an email saying they'd be released today, I thought it was noon but it might be ten am. I think people need to be prepared for this to be quite a c...

Re: Craze for alternative club names
I agree. If your club has history don't meddle. If your club has no history nobody gives a monkeys because it has no association with the team. Who on earth gave the sharks handle to Sale? Doubt many get up the ship canal! I think it was their then owner who was a big fan of West Side Story, so the...

Sorry that Whitley took flack from the fans, he is young but the question is why did he come over to the Crumbie and argue, he should have stayed away over in the middle? Presumably he came over to thank the fans for attending the game, copped an earful, and responded, as emotions were no doubt hig...
