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

A lot of people here seem to have extremely rose tinted glasses. All because someone is young and in the academy doesn’t mean that 1) they will want to stay at Leicester for their entire careers, 2) are automatically better than the players we have currently playing in that position, 3) will automat...

Back...

Re: Trailfinders a sad indictment of rugby
I would just point out that regional team and a franchise aren’t necessarily the same thing. An example of a franchise would be The Raiders in NGL who have been based in at least 3 cities Except the main difference being that Each time the raiders moved they went to a bigger market, the reason they...

Re: Trailfinders a sad indictment of rugby
There isn't an idea I detest more than creating regional franchises in English rugby. However... many of the same arguments were made against cricket's The Hundred, and that competition is attracting TV viewers and attendances that the county game could only dream of. I would just point out that re...

Re: Trailfinders a sad indictment of rugby
We all seem happy to have sacrificial lambs in the 6N and world cup, with the logic that these teams won't improve if they aren't exposed to top tier opposition - is the same not true for Championship clubs? If we're happy to wait 20+ years for Italy to be consistently competitive in the 6N, it doe...

Re: Saudi Arabia in talks to buy stake in Tigers
At the end of the day Tigers are a professional sports team. If the Saudi’s are offering money that could save the four teams, then they would be stupid not to accept it.
