Leicester Tigers

George Ford came out of nowhere to make his Tigers debut at 16, maybe Threlfall is deemed good enough to have a breakthrough season next year and will be understudy to Pollard. Disclaimer: I know nothing about him.... Could be argued to be splitting hairs about "nowhere" but Ford had play...

Saints have signed Tom West. Poss opportunity missed for us, there. They’ve also signed George Makepeace-Cubbit at 10 too, he looked very promising in the U20 games and can play across the backline as well as strongly at 10. With us letting go Meredith, Wilkinson and not having much depth at 10 at ...

Law changes coming in to effect: Must retreat if in front of the kicker (i.e. closes Dupont law) Ban crocodile roles Cannot choose a scrum from a free kick Law trials that competitions can choose to trial 20min red 30s "shot clock" to set scrum and lineouts Allow non straight lineouts if n...

If we lose and Exeter get a result (i.e. we're condemned to 8th) it will be intersting to see what team we pick.

I expect there to be lots of injuries for this side to be picked We are playing and picking people who will not be here next year - sorry but Dolly and Cockasinga do nothing for next year Could make other arguements for players like FVW but why oh why are we playing a full back / fly half on the wi...

Chessum out for the summer tour too so that means George Martin is never being rested for that tour either...

Yeah hopefully they'll release the Injured list soon, suspect Cronin may also be having a knock to not be playing

Montoya out injured is never something we want to see, especially as he came off surprisingly early vs Bristol

As Wilkinson was not on our original set of leavers, it would appear that we wanted to keep him and were in negotiations but the promise of more game time has tempted him away. I really hope we have someone lined up otherwise we are very short at 10 but with how other situations have been handled t...

I've heard some things that were said at the supporters forum were asked to be kept in the room. Can anyone who was there say if it's information/club plans that will be released soon or at all? I think you're referring to the evening where McKellar and Wilkes were questioned by season ticket holde...

Interview from Steward with the Telegraph on the issue Several observers, including Sir Clive Woodward, have wondered how a more radical move to inside centre might go. “It’s been mentioned here and there,” laughs Steward. “And it’s never been something I’ve given much attention to. I’ll stick to th...
