Leicester Tigers

well done to Treviso but lets be honest, its the rabo league, totally irrelevant when it comes to the HCup

Was I the only one that thought the standard of rugby was really poor?

Castro tweeted yesterday about captaining the side:

"Be captain of this shirt is something I can not explain... Is an honour and I so proud to be part of this family..."

What a guy!

The Rugby Paper seem to think its a done deal, also mentions that we looked at the elder Waldrom

Good luck Tom

I believe it may be Tom Wood they are referring to rather than Ben Woods
