Re: Premiership Final v Saracens - 18th June 2022 KO 15:00
Steward was world class after the first 10 minutes today and neutralised Sarries game plan. Big shout out to Hanro and Guy Porter who put in tremendous shifts. Porter in particular had an astounding work rate. Performance of champions today. It was scrappy and far from perfect but the character and ...

Re: 6 Nations 2022
Those wanting Jones sacked will be disappointed. He’s not going anywhere and worst of all, be careful what you wish for because who is good enough to sort out this England squad ? I can’t think of an immediate replacement waiting to step in. Green shoots though I think. Randall and Smith have to st...

Re: 6 Nations 2022
I genuinely don't remember watching an England team that looks less likely to score a try than this lot.
And it's not through lack of available talent. This is a fantastically talented crop of players.

Re: 6 Nations 2022
That one was ruined by Smith. He has to take the ball to ground. Hung Underhill out to dry.TigerReggie wrote: ↑Sat Mar 19, 2022 9:17 pmThen spoiled by the other 14 playersTheTigerKing wrote: ↑Sat Mar 19, 2022 9:16 pm Let's not be shy about it. Freddie Steward is legitimately world class.

Re: 6 Nations 2022
Joe Marchant showing what can happen if we hit players running strong lines rather than kicking the ball away or Marcus Smith throwing pretty but ineffective hitchkicks.

Re: 6 Nations 2022
We look like 15 players who have never met.
Inconsistent selection. Poor coaching. Players out of position.

Re: 6 Nations 2022
Furbank is so far away from international quality it's frightening. With Nowell off we now have zero wingers on the field. Stodgy in hand and kicking away far too often. No pace or power on the wings. It shows where Jones is that he's trying gimmicks like Genge carrying from the backfield. We have a...

Re: 6 Nations 2022
The English pack is playing very well. The scrummaging is hit and miss (same for all teams right now) but in the breakdown, defensive line and the mail they are so dominant. The problem is the backs can't break the line. For all of Smith's talent, he's not carving openings yet and there else is just...

Re: Ben Youngs
Ben Youngs is one of the most disrespected players of all time. The Guardian article summed it up pretty well. He's a great all round SH and everybody focuses on individual players better at single facets of the game yet noone has shown to be a better SH than him There's a reason every single Englan...

Re: LEICESTER TIGERS 2021/22 SQUAD/TRANSFERS/CONTRACTS: Lord of the Mauls
I think people are looking too much into the Genge and Ford situations. Both have expressed family reasons for leaving and I see zero reason to doubt this. Covid has left many of us re-evaluating our priorities. The real positive is that Borthwick has brought about such a change in fortunes that tho...
