Leicester Tigers

It says on that link that baz1664 posted that he's actually played 8 in the past. I wouldn't be too surprised if Loamanu turns up at the back of the pack for us!

We looked completely dog tired and Sarries were fresh. The season is far from over however, we've had a tough set of fixtures. With some injury returns we will claw back in to the mix.

The last 3 times that we have played Quins (the times we have lost) - including the final, we have been missing one of either B Youngs or Flood (crucial), Croft (on all 3 occasions,a game-changing player) and a significant other e.g. Manu or Cole (big loss to any side). The last time we played Quins...

Hopefully T Youngs, Parling, Croft just being rested. They must be shattered anyway.

Good news about Flood. "It’s a very well-run club with the right people in charge." Quoth he in the article. Half empty: he would say that wouldn't he given he wants a new contract. Half full: he didn't actually have to say that at all. (caveat it's a tabloid). If Bowden moves on, what hap...

Depends what criteria you mark them on. Probably be something like drop goals Wilkinson 2, Flood 0 though. Looking forward to loads of interesting match ups.

In one of the post-match interviews when Tait was asked whether/why his form was improving he said that he really doesn't like wet/muddy conditions. Perhaps that is a bit of a statement of the obvious for a running back but maybe we will start to see some of that old sparkle from him now its drier. ...

Really exciting end to the season in prospect.Probably going down to the results on the final day. How about needing a home BP win against Irish in the last normal match to secure 2nd !?

Sounds like the lady in the hotel should have done the sensible thing and gone onto a forum and vented her spleen there instead! Apart from being plain rude she clearly did not know her stuff - I don't think the word 'arrogant' can be applied to a Tigers player! Hope these boys come back with a poin...

Hopefully SL will take the time to reflect and realise that under the intense pressure of the very big games we need players in the correct positions. Keeping it tight,defending and playing the percentages are vital in internationals but the top teams are able to break lose at key moments and the wa...

Well said Sapajo - there's a risk we might end up with a really strong, youthful and creative set of backs at this rate! Feel the positivity!

Interesting about Owen Williams...my speculation is Bowden did not impress as a 10 and will fight for 12 next season (he and Allen are good horses for different courses), Flood will either leave for bigger bucks or perhaps move to 12 when his contract is up in 14 months time, we will see how Ryan La...

It is getting tighter each year - but in fairness, anything these days that can be considered 'reasonably priced' has to be appreciated!!

Sapajo, don't be underwhelmed until you see how these guys actually play for Tigers. Additionally - there just isn't the room in the cap for marquee signings, prepare to be underwhelmed some more!! The opportunities we used to have to get the Pat Howards, Maugers, Tuquiris of this world (there's a s...

With regard to changing the DOR (as opposed to the attack coach or needing a defense coach) remember the Tigers spartan ethos, never say die attitude and facilities are widely lauded by pundits and other coaches alike. Therefore a new coach would have to a) fight to change things which would be real...
