Very unfair as it was flat according to Bristol Post 😂

Well I am !
What he actually said was that he was more worried about the standard of performance.

Context is everything

Re: Tigers v Saints (A) - Premiership - Saturday 20th April 2024 - KO: 15-05

Have not watched this game so cannot comment on who played well or who did not. However, last time I looked rugby union was a game for fifteen not fourteen or thirteen, which is how we seem to play it. Just exactly how are we supposed to compete with anyone if we cannot maintain discipline and keep...

Re: Leinster mind games begin? - Champions Cup (A) - Saturday 06th April 2024 - KO:8:00pm

Am I the only person on here who DOESN’T rate Mr Skip-kick? Aka Marcus Smith?? I don't think it would be fair to say he is a bad player. However i think he is massively over rated and i am personally not a fan at all. I would pick Fin Smith over him every day of the week with George Ford as a back ...

Re: Leinster mind games begin? - Champions Cup (A) - Saturday 06th April 2024 - KO:8:00pm

One of the factors in selecting Cracknell at 7 might be to add some more ballast to the back 5, given that Wells and Hatherell isn’t the biggest second row? In DMK I trust. I wish more people would. This talk of replacing him after less than a season is plain daft imo. There is a failure to see tha...

Re: Tigers v Newcastle (A) - Premiership - Friday 29th March 2024 - KO: 19-45

Was that Carnduff? Massive intervention... It really shouldn't have been that hard, should have been five points as well. Hopefully the win will give the squad some confidence to latch on to. Hanging on against Falcons is not a confidence giving performance Yeah it shouldn't but wins like that can ...

Tigers back to 14 - we're lucky not to get another YC there.

I am fine with kicking and mauling if it means we score points and win.

I'm all for expansive rugby but not if the ball handling skills can't keep up

Re: Saracens - Harlequins TMO

The TMO is in the truck with the Director but does not have direct commentary feed into his headphones. The commentary is on in the background in the van so is picked up indirectly. All commentary feeds are cut when there is a review taking place so that it does not influence the decision. The TMO ...

Losing Borthwick, Sinfield and Walters is a massive chunk out of the team.. will take time to replace that
I totally agree and time for the new team to find their feet

Re: Tigers vs Gloucester (H) - Premiership - Friday 22nd March 2024 - KO:19.45

Shame we didn't glean any points from the pressure in the first 15 minutes... i think that would have made it a different game.
