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

I heard we had spent up, unless we exit someone, no other significant signings - that’s why he must have a plan, probably academy promotions. Perhaps the rumour we have spent up includes signings we have made (or are in the process of making) but not yet announced. We do need a fly half and one tha...

Re: Leicester Tigers Women 2023/24 - Vicky Macqueen in 'The Magnificent Fifteen'

Could be financial difficulties. Reading the statement it reads more a Vicky led decision. She's done an incredibly tough job of founding a team and it has been a massive effort, it may be that she is just ready to pass the baton on to someone to build on the foundations and structure she's built. ...

Vicky Macqueen is leaving Tigers, so changes for the womens team
Not great news, hope it’s not a sign of things to come for the women’s team.

Pre season starts on 1st July! It better not!!! New contracts start 1st July, but the last thing they need is another very long preseason. This year with the PRC and World Cup we had a longer than usual preseason, it didn't work. Give the players a proper break, build with a full squad and full coa...

Time to just back DMK: he had no real preseason with so many players at the World Cup: attack coach then has to go on compassionate leave: injures meant he then had Henderson, Martin, Chessum all missing at crucial times! Looking at the performances I’ve gone to at home and away games since Christm...

Re: Please get behind your team v Exeter

Just back home after a cracking afternoon at MWWR.. I haven't read the bulk of the posts so apologies if I am repeating what others have said but what a game, what an atmosphere and what a difference a week makes! If that is a small glimpse of what we can expect next season I think we are in for a ...

Looks like Gengey picked up a calf injury and could miss England Summer Tour.

Not going to say anything other that I have heard from a first hand source today that all is not well within the camp over Mckellar with a number of players not subscribing to his vision and/or methodology. Well, it would be a strange old world if everyone was happy with their managers... perhaps t...

Re: Please get behind your team v Exeter

Yes, but he went in to defend his team mate. Got MoM as well. *from the important people. Don’t get this initial comment. Wasn’t thuggery he picks him up and drops him and lands on his head amongst other parts of his body. Yellow card at worst and as others have said was due to the breakdown not be...

Some odd selections for me for sure. But back the team nonetheless.
That’s interesting Kata now on the bench and they’ve updated Instagram to add Kata in 23 shirt when it was originally Phil C?

Re: Leicester Tigers Women 2023/24 - Vicky Macqueen in 'The Magnificent Fifteen'

Apart from the news about the new sponsor it’s gone really quiet on the format for the women’s game for next season including any players in or out plus details of season tickets etc.
