Re: Billy Vunipola arrested

Why would we even consider him? He's not 1st choice for England or Saracens anymore. We've signed Beets let's develop him as we did Jasper. We have Hanro and Hatherall who can cover 8. I think Beets is too young for a year or two. I don't think he has ever even played a senior game. Jaspar was a lo...

Re: Tigers v Bristol (H) - Premiership - Saturday 27th April 2024 - KO: 15-00

I often watch games for the first time a day or two after - and often find the same thing. People get caught up in the emotion watching it live I think - rather than dispassionately in the cold light of day. This is very true and I am certainly guilty of this. I still believe though that the offici...

Re: Tigers v Bristol (H) - Premiership - Saturday 27th April 2024 - KO: 15-00

I think kicking for touch would have been the best option, as setting up the lineout would have run around 30 secs off the clock and Bristol attacking from their 22 off first phase was a much greater challenge than from open play. 2.10 is a long time to pick and go with the risk of sealing off and ...

Re: Tigers v Bristol (H) - Premiership - Saturday 27th April 2024 - KO: 15-00

After all the vitriol posted by certain keyboard warriors towards the officials, I’ve just watched the game on tv to see what I missed live. I can only offer two instances where they got it wrong and it materially affected the game. The first was when Cronin flew into a ruck almost from the Bristol...

Re: Tigers social post about threats

people think they have a right to say what they like Isn't this called freedom of speech!? :smt040 IMHO Censorship is probably at its worst for a long time now. You are no longer allowed to call an apple an apple (think gender politics) without fear of retribution. Those involved in our game would ...

Re: Tigers v Bristol (H) - Premiership - Saturday 27th April 2024 - KO: 15-00

Maybe one reason why we have failed in the last 20 mins is that the opponents' benches were better. If you look at Leinster's, Saint's, and Bristol's they were considerably better than ours. We do, however, look knackered in the last 20 or so, so we are certainly missing Aled. Is it wrong to blame t...

I would say that Carley has lost control of the game if he ever had control of the game.

It’s Carley & Kitt
My tactic of trying to ignore this failed. Poor officiating unfortunately.

Kitty got that one right at least!!
