Leicester Tigers

Walk in the park for Stains

Gotta think the air-miles have really hurt LR. Stupid competition.

That's one of the best away wins in Europe ever, I think

Some result, that!

Looks like season will still go down to the last match, though.

A few names I'll be sad to see go, but removing any emotion from it, nobody that I think we can't do without. With the exception of Jasper, of course.

Fallow week out of the way, we're back in the thick of it this weekend. Scotland vs England: Five Tigers on show in Edinburgh! Leah Bartlett starts again, with Elis Martin dropping back to a bench that also has the returning Fran McGhie. Meg Jones retains the England 13 shirt, and there's a long-awa...

We're back at Welford Road for some cup action tomorrow, 1230 kick off!

I hope we take this relatively seriously. No need to risk the key players, or anyone with a high workload, but a game vs a roughly 2nd choice side would be really competitive.

Not ideal, obviously, and I go in with no expectations. Just hoping we come through unscathed.

That said, happy to see Shillcock named as a 15.

Really hard fought 2nd half, and Scotland battled for everything, but couldn't get enough territory and a late France try just kept them at arms length. 5-15

They deserved a point, but that's a 45 point swing from last year, so big progress.

Elis Martin scores from the maul, with Scotland putting in a great shift to lead 5-3 at the break!

Shillcock is a 15, by the way. Maybe we should let Kieran Wilkinson have a crack at the Polly understudy.

By the way, nice to have Jamie Lyall on comms for a change. Might be my favourite current commentator.

Notable that we moved Carnduff to the flank for the last few scrums (the ones there wasn't a penalty from) I wasn't sure but think we left Liebenberg on the other flank so Jasper was in at lock doing the big shoves that stopped the penalties Yeah, Jasper was in the row. Good adjustment on pitch fro...

Boys might as well have next weekend off
