I'd support Tigers if you were the last English club in a European Finals match.....................I may still wear my Glaws shirt mind.

I think most of us (if slightly reluctantly) will be supporting Gloucester in the final, but won't be too unhappy with a loss...

With World Rugby seemingly confirming that Hanro is actually becoming EQP, that is probably quite useful in terms of recruitment. We have Smith, Perese & Beets joining as non EQP Leaving that are non EQP are Scott & Wiese (plus Carter and Powell mid season) Certainly makes the likes of a Mor...

https://twitter.com/jameswhile/status/1792890115632566279?t=7n4wCSC3jaTqi-t99bGJHg&s=19 James the author of the article has confirmed with World Rugby that Hanro will become EQP once 60months residency is completed... That will be a big bonus for us based on hitting our EQP targets even if he do...

Hanro is good but is he of international standard? As for nationality, I thought age group representation no longer ties a player to the senior nationality, assuming they qualify for another country. If the appearance was pre 2018 it can still tie you to the country, any new appearances don't tie you

Charlie Atkinson - left mid season Sam Carter - left mid season Phil Cokanasiga Nic Dolly Guy Porter Joe Powell - left mid season Dan Richardson Matt Scott Jasper Wiese Mike Williams - left mid season Ben Woollett - short term injury cover Francois van Wyk Kieran Wilkinson Jacob Cusick Oliver Crane ...

I'm sure I've read this somewhere, but I can't seem to see any thread on here or News article on the Tigers website with the definitive list of who is leaving now the season has finished. I know about Wiese and Van Wyk, but who else won't be pulling on the Tigers jersey next season? Thanks https://...

They've rotated it around a few degrees too...

Adediran (Flanker)
Dickens (Scrum Half)
Mellowes (Loosehead)
Maka (Tighthead)
Threlfall (Fly Half)

Were the key ones being discussed on the Academy thread if I recall RB?

Like you say if it's Maka or Dickens there may be noticeable body type with them..

I wonder if we are likely to have popcorn day soon???? Not sure... Yes there are signings ready to announce (such as the heavily reported attack coach) Question is how the club want to fill the gap. There is very little that will get fan engagement till they start having pictures of preseason. The ...

Last season we finished 4 wins behind 1st place. This season we finished 3 wins behind 1st place. Ok it's been a bad season, but the league has bunched up and small differences, Sale who yesterday morning were a long shot to be in the top 4 have the joint most wins of any team in the league. We had ...

So next Friday our European season gets determined Gloucester win and we're in the Challenge Cup, which Borthwick showed can be used as a good run building confidence in a squad and their capabilities. Sharks win and we're in the Champions Cup, the premier European competition, where the money is, b...

Time to just back DMK: he had no real preseason with so many players at the World Cup: attack coach then has to go on compassionate leave: injures meant he then had Henderson, Martin, Chessum all missing at crucial times! Looking at the performances I’ve gone to at home and away games since Christm...

He retired to spend more time with his kids... now he's unable to see his kids atm...

Without trying to sound rude, do you know this for sure? My friend is very well informed and was pretty adamant about this ‘back loading’ I’m not sure how you could average the cap, surely it’s the amount paid in wages in that season, with clubs choosing to have an advantage one season, disadvantag...
