He tweeted about an hour ago :

@RichDC08: Last day at training at Leicester today. Been a quality experience and met some absolute top lads.

Re: Ulster Coach

Don't believe he was ever caretaker manager, but happy to be proven wrong. He was appointe after Matt Williams left as a local man who understood Ulster rugby and it's problems. He was previously Ireland's skills coach and had successfully coached one of the province's leading rugby schools. I think...

Re: Cockerill's future

In areas of sporting excellence athletes, coaches and pundits will often talk about the need to move upwards, to kick on, to raise the bar and such like. If this club intends to stay in the elite rugby clubs of the northern hemisphere we need management who are able to take us there. RC has done a ...

Re: Billy's off...

Whether or not Billy goes on to regularly represent England in the future is irrelevant. I am aware this means he'll miss parts of the season, but what's most important - having someone of his calibre for the remainder of the season or having a lesser player throughout? IMO I'd rather see Flood leav...

Re: Ex Tigers, who would we have back?

Cullen, Jennings, Kayser and J Murphy. Was going to include Dupuy but with MY coming no need. Cullen and Jennings would bring much needed enforcement and bite, as well as prowess on the floor and they're hard players. I doubt I need to justify Kayser, and JM had out and out pace, something I think w...

Re: Poll - should the forum remain?

I echo JA's post - if not being neglected it should definitely remain. I don't post as often as I would like, but check it at least twice daily. Covers everything Tigers as well as other sides. Always presents two well-reasoned sides to an argument and I think is very informative, especially where t...

Re: Well Cockers!!

2). Tigers had a good season. 4). We play a good brand of rugby that has become far more free flowing than recent years. This is supported by the number of points we score each year Youngs have fell off their games in the last third of the season with Floods kicking becoming less consistent 9). Ove...

Re: 'The season is by no means a disaster'

we are no longer in the pool of top seeds I agree 100% with you mike and I think us now being in the second seeds epitomises where we are. Right now, I'm sorry to say, we're not good enough to be called one of the best in Europe. If we aspire to be the best, issues need to be addressed which I hope...

Re: What we need to do for next Season

For next season :- - Hawkins has to start ahead of Chuter. Hawkins has more pace, is more dynamic and his set piece is better I think. Chutes gives away easy penalties, and goes to the ground very easily, not gaining much ground. - Waldrom needs to play. He brings spark and links well with the backs...

Re: Taking the Mickey....Young

Sky Sports iPhone app on the story of Falcons signing of Pasqualin.

"The twenty year old will fill the void left by Mickey Young who is leaving Falcons and joining Leicester in the summer."

Not on their website though. Glad to hear it.

TTTE is more than just an impact player from the bench, should definitely start with Newby on the bench
