Leicester Tigers

Jordan was also benched behind Havili this week, though that may have just been rotation. Caleb Clarke has been going well. The other one earning decent reviews, albeit not prolific yet, would be Jona Nareki of the Highlanders. Coincidentally both Nadolo and Fainga’anuku’s brothers are also at the ...

The casual Facebook/Twitter fan brigade don’t like it, but I love the away kit, how they incorporated the Stihl logo is very good (which is a first for a Tigers kit). Home jersey is starting to grow on me but in my opinion the stripes are too big and too few.

Agree I love the away shirt

I suppose one question would be if you wanted a captain who is likely to be away during international windows/games or who will be still at Welford Road all season. Both Liebenberg and Reffell fit the latter although if Reffell really kicks off, we may start losing him in a seasons time to Wales du...

What about Jason Robinson, did he get capped before the Lions tour? I'm sure it was close either way

Guscott was uncapped when he was a Lion in '97

Exeter teasing with a "mouth-watering signing later this month
From BBC Sport - "Interestingly, we have another name who we will be announcing in a week or two's time whose name will have everyone licking their lips," Baxter told the club website.

Me fears its Taufua :(

PLEASE tell me there is no truth in the rumour that Taufua is off to Exeter, we have lost far too many good players to them

Fantastic to see Genge resign, fingers crossed for Taufua PLEASE

Maybe 1 is the rumoured Nick Abendanon

Behind the scenes all is apparently not well at Gloucester.George Skivington possibility has his work cut out.Not the easiest or best role for a first time out Head Coach.Many factions vying for positions and many voices trying to make themselves heard

And Tiger's in turmoil is?

I admit it I was conned, I fell for the 15 signings :( I didn't realise it would be a rehash of the youth we already have

Stop all the discussions re Manu - as I said over a week ago - he will engage in brinkmanship AGAIN, before agreeing to stay - https://twitter.com/midi_olympique/status/1279803512126418949?s=21&fbclid=IwAR2pBrd5VZGfhZHTrut0YXir98Lf5YrUqgA8P0-w008Re5QharQ_CLcFUj8 Midi olympique is rarely wrong I thi...

After the excitement of seeing the new signings for next season to add to a decent back bone of a team, losing high profile players and maybe more to follow, I am feeling pretty forlorn now :(.

This is not good news if correct

If it happens, and Mike Hancock has been widely trailing it, its a fair guess that it will be subject to a review after three weeks, as have other COVID restrictions. No training for three weeks? That’s the end of a mid August start for Tigers season. Would this affect other clubs European expectat...
