Re: Tigers v Bristol (H) - Premiership - Saturday 27th April 2024 - KO: 15-00

Lot of talk about the officials and some of their decisions. We were lucky they disallowed the Oghre try - looked a flat pass to me. I was in line with it. It was forward. Not by very much. Can’t remember if it was the lineo that called it. The same lineo who missed the utterly obvious knock on tha...

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

Wasn’t Whiteley decent in earlier games ? Seems like he’s copping the flack for a collective effort ? He's been average to date. His commitment in defence is his main plus point. The choice and execution of the box kick at the end was very poor and unnecessary. He's copping the flack for people's f...

Brink was never fit, Nephi never quite had the impact we hoped and same for Saumaki even if he did turn up with the occasional miracle finish. MVS was a great acquisition and it's a real shame he had the concussion issues. Potter is a loss, he was a guy when your back was against the wall you know h...

It's like every club win and the sun shines out of every :censored:, loses and suddenly they smell worse than everyone else :censored:. Same Bristol fans by 60 minutes where prob saying that their game plan sucked and didn't work out. Brown going off and Thacker coming on swung the game. We lost ou...

Two of the players I'd keep and let succession gradually do it's thing. Clare won't be expensive but he's a solid set piece hooker. Wells has had an off season but is tough and you know he'll put it all on the line. Let the young guns slowly push them down the pecking order. The cull I was thinking...

Since Aled went to England we have become a weak Team in the last 20. Those will have a memory will recall how we were once a team who, if they were close in the last 20 we could expect to win, Cockers didn't feel we needed a fitness coach and we became average... Deja vu? Our S&C coach has a M...

Silly me no I do not :smt003 I texted my family and said if he is selected again im giving up my season ticket. Wasn’t Whiteley decent in earlier games ?

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

A lot of forwards imo are in their last contact now, too many players who don’t bring impact or have lost their old impact. Yeah I wouldn't be surprised if there's a cull at the end of next season. Particularly around the backrow as we look to refine what we need with the next generation coming thr...

I actually really like the look of young Ollie Allan and think he can make an impact next season. (Edit: IF given the chance) I think Simmonds was a brilliant scrum half prior to injury and that put pay to him playing 9 again. For me he is a far better 9 than winger and he should be reinstated he i...

Re: Tigers v Bristol (H) - Premiership - Saturday 27th April 2024 - KO: 15-00

I was sat in the Mattioli Woods Stand and watching us spend most of the first half in their 22, I began to pity our players. So much ball, so much territory, so many phases, but quite frankly they looked like they could've played all day and still wouldn't figure out how to deconstruct a defence. T...

Re: Tigers v Bristol (H) - Premiership - Saturday 27th April 2024 - KO: 15-00

Mckellar did say post match that he would be having words with Whiteley as it was the players decision, That sums it up then. Happens a lot, we gift possession back to a dangerous side in the final stages. Not good enough decision making at this level. And Edwards has just been let go! Whether it s...

Re: Tigers v Bristol (H) - Premiership - Saturday 27th April 2024 - KO: 15-00

The biggest gripe with the Mike Brown take is that I see Jasper get hit like that 10 times a game. But no punishment is given because he’s a hard git. The end result shouldn’t be a determining play. It needs to be reffed equally Van Rensenburg milked that penalty to perfection and acted like he had...

Re: Tigers v Bristol (H) - Premiership - Saturday 27th April 2024 - KO: 15-00

Final time I'll mention it, but just saw the second yellow again on Twitter - not a single Bristol player appeals. None of them even flinch, they just carry on with the game. It's a bonkers decision. I don't think it's even a penalty. They have to review it, van Rensburg was leaving the field for a...
