Leicester Tigers

As it's a Tigers XV next weekend I'd see who steps up then and I'd be tempted to give them a real shot vs Sale if they do well.

This is billed as a Leicester Tigers XV rather than Leicester Tigers. Personally I hope it's a cross between leavers who we may not get a chance to say bye to otherwise and development guys. 15. Gourlay 14. Cusick 13. Porter 12. Woodward 11. Kinder 10. Wilkinson 9. Allan 1. Whitcombe (c) 2. Dolly 3....

I like Kata as a 12 tbh would’ve allowed Porter to stay on the wing which was is my preferred position for him tbh, I would’ve had Kata in for Socino and Taute combined wage. Shillcock def over Hegarty Cracknell v Jansen is close Brown over Murimurivalu , Honestly Pollard is on par with Ford imo, b...

TBF on B how many on here complained about Wigglesworth and Ashton as dross signings? Fair point but they were old and experienced coming to the end of their careers but we're never dross Idk Ashton was dross at Sale, Wuss and quins tbf I remember every saying he was toxic and could ruin the team c...

Agreed. I'm a huge, huge fan of players like Wells and Clare, but they don't seem at a high enough level any more. Two of the players I'd keep and let succession gradually do it's thing. Clare won't be expensive but he's a solid set piece hooker. Wells has had an off season but is tough and you kno...

I think Simmonds was a brilliant scrum half prior to injury and that put pay to him playing 9 again. For me he is a far better 9 than winger and he should be reinstated he is in a different league to Whiteley Problem for me is that a sucession of coaches have not rated him at scrum half. Pre pandem...

The 9 succession is currently JVP and Whiteley and the latter is a 4th choice 9 at his very best I actually really like the look of young Ollie Allan and think he can make an impact next season.

Terrible result...

Even worse that the club has had to put this statement out there...

Can I just say Whiteley, rightly is getting some criticism on his performance. He is (not on here ) getting abuse to go with criticism. That is NOT acceptable. He got in a shouting match with someone post match and invited the person to come say it to his face. I'm sorry as gutted as we are in the r...

15 on the park and we win with a TBP.... Soooo frustrating and disappointing Which could be applied to most games I have watched lately.. weren’t we down to 13 at one point in the PRC Final? Last 3 prem games we have had 7 yellow cards and 2 red cards (although one red was for 2 yellows). This is u...

Probably the most interesting season finish for a long time, although I'd struggle to imagine us making top 4 now. Still hope though... If Saints and us win (5-0) today (or we get 5 and Bristol and Quins get 0). Our route to the top 4 is as follows: Us get 5 points vs Sale & Exeter One of eithe...
