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

….and for Healey to question if he’s going fast enough is just inaccurate and frankly, wrong. I see on social media everyone is now questioning OHC - funny that - well done Austin. To be fair, it didn't need (Mr Healy) to realise that he is not playing as well or running as quickly as he did previo...

Re: Tigers v Saints (A) - Premiership - Saturday 20th April 2024 - KO: 15-05

I still struggle with why we play our best full back on the wing and an international wing in the centre.... Kata has mostly played in the centre and is IMHO a better centre than a wing. I think he only plays on the wing for Tonga as they have other options in the centre. As for Steward, I tend to ...

Re: Tigers v Saints (A) - Premiership - Saturday 20th April 2024 - KO: 15-05

I think we showed a lot of promise today but also it highlighted just how far we have to go. 15vs15 our defense was solid but we only had 15 on the field for about half the match. I lost count of how many penalties we conceded and 2 yellows and a red makes it almost an impossible task. With 20 to p...

Re: Tigers v Saints (A) - Premiership - Saturday 20th April 2024 - KO: 15-05

Fitness clearly an issue since Aled left. Back to the old second half collapses. You can't play with 14 men against Saints for 50 mins and not expect to see the players blowing. Yep agreed. A man down for over half the game against one of the best sides at running the ball.. who are also top of the...

This was the case against Leinster too. I agree with Mol2 here.

We need to step this up for next season.

We won the first half. We were in it until the red. We are not as bad as some are making out.

We just need to take our chances and learn to play for the full 80. Probably will start next season and with a new attack coach though.

How the hell was OHC going to be able to take that fired at him like that Yes OHC hasn’t looked like his usual self with his pace, but he’s actually be decent this season. A lot of it is down to no attack coach as we just don’t have any ideas so resort to chucking it and hoping. Yes he’s not tearin...

The first half we did look well coached. After the card, we just collapsed.

Ben Youngs should retire, unfortunately.

Today I would agree about Shillcock.

OHC has been poor all season IMHO.

Yup, he should be banned.
