Re: LEICESTER TIGERS 2023/24 - KANGAROO MCKELLER: Do you come from a land down under? (Squad thread pt 2)

If we are worried about giving away a pen for sealing off when running down the clock we should be practicing that scenario more . As well as going to ground, the other option is of course to try to bump the defender, then stand up in the tackle to set up a rolling maul, gain some ground, wind the c...

I think we were lucky Dickson didn’t give them a penalty try for so many repeated infringements

We all want to see immediate results but I really do think the new coach cannot properly be judged until next season, when he has had time with his preferred, not inherited, team - on & off the pitch

Re: Tigers v La Rochelle (A) - Champions Cup - Sunday 14th January 2024 - KO - 3-15pm

Agree 100% about Martin & Chessum - wouldn't swap them for any other pairings at the moment. & then we should have Wells on the bench who is also playing well. One of them days yesterday - we were unlikely to ever get anything form a team spending twice as much as us playing at home, despera...

So because it's on there it's not available on Premiership Rugby TV, so if you can't get that obscure channel you can't watch it ? !

Can't be right, is it ?

Re: Tigers v Stade Francais (A) - Champions Cup - Sunday 17th December 2023 - KO:5-30pm

I though that ranked up there with the best European wins of late. Reminded me of I think it was it Clermont Auvergne last season when we sent a similar side & came away with a win that really got the season rocking. Looked on it from minute one I thought - first line out went badly but didn't p...

Re: Champions Cup Final

Fine margins indeed & COMPOSURE. La Rochelle had it & Leinster didn't. Examples of which were Lowe slicing two kicks to touch in the second half & inviting pressure back onto his team. La Rochelle then have two crucial line outs in the last few minutes both of which they call to the tail...

No one else worried about another assistant international coach using us as a stepping stone to then jump ship as soon as he is offered the national job ?
