Re: 5 Tigers in England U20 squad

Says a lot about that Tigers match that I switched over to the 20s. Incredible effort from England. They'll have been gutted to let last week slip, but to pull that off against such a strong French side is really special. There is just something about this tournament, the Wales come back against th...

Re: 2024 Six Nations Chat

Here's the French team for Friday evening's opening match, and it's as expected. I'm really hoping that Racing scrum half, Nolan Le Garrec, gets more than 5 minutes at the end of the game to be properly tested at international level, because I'm convinced he has the potential to keep Antoine Dupont...

Re: Tigers v Leinster (H) - Champions Cup - Saturday 20th January 2024 - KO: 3-15pm

I can't remember us having a decent attack/backs coach. On a couple of occasions since 2005 against Welsh and Irish opposition, I've quipped that with our forwards and their backs, we'd be lethal. Under SB we became a great forwards and defensive unit, based on AWs exceptional conditioning regime. ...

Re: Alan Dickens - Tigers lack of attack coach.

Rowntree is having a rather impressive time at Munster, you wonder if he was on the conversation when Borthwick left. As for a backs coach, Carwyn James would struggle with players that can't do the basics of catch & pass. Less time in the gym more on the pitch might be a rather simplistic answ...

Re: Tigers v Quins (H) - Premiership - Saturday 11th November 2023 KO: 15:05

But in reality who would we get to replace him? The dugout would probably do a better job at present :smt005 Do we really want rid of a guy who's had less than a week with a full squad? No, DM needs time and space to sort through what has been a jumbled start to the Tigers season. Coming in on the ...

Re: Eddie Jones resigns as Australia coach

Beggars belief that Tigers have repeated the same gamble as they did signing Borthwick. If Mckellar does go Tigers need to sign someone whose tenure is not based upon foundations of sand and the success of the club goes down the toilet when it gives way again. So we shouldn't hire exciting, upcomin...

Re: RWC 2023 Fixtures and results

England’s starting 15 were superb but the difference was obviously the two benches. Handre Pollard is such a calm yet class act. The game plan was similar to when we beat Sarries with Burns’ drop goal and England didn’t have a Weise ( South Africa have 2 similar players for number 8) and certainly ...

Re: RWC 2023 Fixtures and results

I’ll stick my neck out,happy to be wrong again lol,but there’s no way Ford is getting dropped,not a chance! So we will either see Farrell at 12 or a 0.00001% chance we will see him on the bench. Just can’t see Borths dropping Ford after that. Sorry to go on and on and I don’t want to seem like it’s...

Re: RWC 2023 Fixtures and results

Yellow at most,happened very quickly for me. Let’s hope the bunker sees sense but my confidence has gone in it now after the Curry decision. Although I can see why a red will be given. Do we think all borderline calls will be given red just because it’s a globally televised competition and a marker...
