Leicester Tigers

Blimey I think I might have to turn the sound off on the Bath v Saints game to drown out the yawping commentator.

I'm hoping some of our star names are back for the Exeter opener, I'm not convinced by what I saw in the 2 preseason games that we are going to be good enough to go away on the first game and win with the players I saw in the friendlies. Yes there were some very good players out there, (not too muc...

I do wonder based on Cheika's post match interview with Radio Leicester if there is some behind closed doors friendly sorted for next week. He did correct himself talking about a game next week, and then talked about Exeter, but just something in how he was answering suggested there is some sort of...

My main worry is locks. Henderson, Martin and Chessum all recovering from injuries. Our other locks are not what you would call premiership standard so hope one or two of the 3 are fit to play.

It seems wrong that teams that don’t supply any England players get the same payment as the others. I think the supposed value will be that clubs will at contract negotiations be able to knock over 100k off player salaries as if they are in the 25 they will have that paid by the RFU. What I think i...

Wouldn’t be at all surprised if Cheika had a few irons in the fire for Aussie/ Argie players for next season.

Enjoyed the game as seems a very long time since we were at Welford road. Thought some fringe players stood up well and Volavola looks a useful player. The score line was a bit harsh on Nottingham who competed well but the run by Kata was worth the admission price alone.

Agree that those were poor comments

Wouldn’t be surprised to see Rogerson released next season + 1 of Hatherall /Cracknell.

Wouldn't be massively surprising to see them both used at 8 during the season. As long as neither is lining up at 7. Any idea what’s going on with Rogerson? As we’ve basically got four players all in the exact same mould. Not sure Cracknell and Rogerson are particularly similar. Positionally certai...

Yes a bit nit picking

As there’s not much to post about at the moment I thought I’d have a stab at predicting the final table for the upcoming season so here goes.
Bath
Northampton
Saracens
Tigers
Sale
Bristol
Harlequins
Exeter
Gloucester
Newcastle

I’m in two minds as well as my internet speed is only around 40mps so streaming can buffer at times so if I did pay it would probably be with sky.

Thought this thread was for transfer rumours ?
