McKellar says we'll hopefully have Martin in selection consideration this week

With Meredith, look at his season. Spent a fair bit of the BUCS season as the backup 10. Why is that, at a guess, he was training primarily with us and then not up to speed with Loughborough's attack. Once Tigers have an extended break so he trains more with Loughborough, he's suddenly their startin...

I suppose there is an argument that we might now be better off with JvP and White than JvP and Youngs, but I don't think anyone would have argued that back when White left. Yeah now we'd have two people competing for the 9 jersey if we had both, and a 3rd choice in the international periods... &quo...

Freddie himself in an interview says he's focusing on the back 3 not thinking about switching to 12

How would you convince a player of White's quality to stay and be 3rd choice on a salary comensurate with that status, given the other opportunities available to him? Or should we have let JvP go instead? Genuine questions. You can't have all the players, because: A) salary cap B) wanting to avoid ...

Unfortunately--------------Steward wont be considered at Full Back for England unless he radically improves his speed and directional running. Plus his defence isnt that great I disagree with this. Borthwick has shown time and time again he picks a side for the plan he has that day. There are days ...

Why do Tigers on their website post the news about the academy lads leaving and Kata’s ban way down the front page if at all it even appears high up on the page, they seem to have a consistent policy of trying to bury this type of news. As Kata’s ban appeared on major news channels and will be talk...

Kata 3 week ban

Can be reduced to 2 with a course.

Interstingly our friendly counts to the ban so it could only be the only the Bristol league game he misses

Also isn't Seb Smith in his 6th season? https://www.leicestertigers.com/news/squad-addition-academy-graduates-2106 So just checked he is in his 3rd season by my maths based on this announcement EDIT: I think it's also only his second season as a Hooker, having been a Loosehead in his first Senior A...

Senior academy is 18-24 and under 50K a year. Tom Manz is still only 22 this season so technically could have another 2 years in the dev squad Best guess when our new attack coach will join us? Ordinarily would be July but I wonder if it could be sooner? Prob in the off season, as he's still got hi...

Although not close enough to know much about his development, it seems a shame to lose Meredith. We haven't really produced an exciting prospect at 10 since Umaga, who left before we had chance to see him in the senior side I'd say Costelow falls into the exciting prospect category, but once again ...

So this is the Senior Academy minus the leavers Senior Academy Fifth Season Tom Manz - extended 23/01/23 Fourth Season Emeka Ilione - extended 23/01/23 Archie Vanes - extended 23/01/23 Third Season Lewis Chessum - extended 18/08/22 Tim Hoyt - extended 23/01/23 Seb Smith Second Season Finn Carnduff ...

Tom Manz kept as the big surprise... suggests he's going into the pot as that lock back up, so probably no signing there.
