Leicester Tigers

How many people are successful at interview for a job whilst employed elsewhere and while working their notice immediately start working for their new employer, are involved in interviewing and appointing staff even before their new contract starts. I would have thought that more unlikely when movi...

Rumours are we have def signed another 12. But I don't think the squad looks as bad as people suggest, given it's not even June yet in terms of signings. See I don't get this, we need a 13 not a 12. Options at 12 next year brackets mean secondary position... Kelly Kata (Perese) Woodward (Myall) Opt...

How do you know that? Olly Richardson with his ties to Tigers previously was likely a recommendation to McKellar from the club if not an appointment by the club. Dickens could have been either, hard to tell as it's possible McKellar became aware of him or met him at a Junior World Cup or similar. I...

For people within their first year of employment you can just sack people for no reason and pay them two weeks' pay. They definitely were McKellar's picks . Just because they aren't Australian doesn't mean he didn't want them in his team. As a very big McKellar sceptic it is more reassuring to me t...

Are we sure Richardson was sacked and there wasn't just honest conversations that led to him seeking employment elsewhere? It's not unusual for people to take on jobs, find they aren't a good fit and then move on again. I'm not sure why you think everyone gets a massive payoff either. Normally it's...

I would like to see a New attack coach New head of performance New Academy head coach Lock/back row Scrum half - honestly just someone to push Youngs as 2nd choice, I like Allan and kinda want him to have a season at Nottingham or champ and then bring him in to challenge Whiteley Fly half Centre Th...

Steward and Carnduff at least have shown some fight- Steward looks angry, as he has every right to. I like angry Steward maybe we should fire him up a bit more pre game. He's been everywhere tonight. Agreed, seeing him square up to JL Du Preez was something I wasn't expecting I think full back migh...

I’m really worried about how players come into our team and appear to get worse!

That passage sums up the whole season.

Poor lineout.

Poor from JVP- twice! Offside- penalty try- yellow card- ruddy brilliant!

Again our fitness looks dreadful Agreed, I had some slight concerns with the changes in our S&C team when Aled left, I know it was an almost impossible task to follow but there's been a really big drop off Agreed- we have no stamina and the team has little pace as it is. So annoying as you woul...

JVP has been really poor tonight with his kicking.

Where is the scrum half sweeping there? JVP should be covering that.

If the ref could do something about the scrum, that would be nice. No profit from our dominance at all.

Fear I’ve kicked a hornets nest with my Whitcombe comment! I would like to see how he goes in a first choice front row, then we can make a more informed comment.

Hope he goes well on Friday.
