Re: LEICESTER TIGERS 2023/24 - KANGAROO MCKELLER: Do you come from a land down under? (Squad thread pt 2)
George Ford came out of nowhere to make his Tigers debut at 16, maybe Threlfall is deemed good enough to have a breakthrough season next year and will be understudy to Pollard. Disclaimer: I know nothing about him.... Could be argued to be splitting hairs about "nowhere" but Ford had play...

Re: Tigers v Sale (A) - Premiership - Friday 10th May 2024 - KO: 7:45pm
I agree with many of the comments above. If this isn't an opportunity to play 2 or 3 of the youngsters, when is? I know I defended McKellar for picking Van Wyk throughout the season, but for these two matches its hard to come up with any reason to start him over Whitcombe. Same for Dolly over FTT or...

Re: Tigers v Sale (A) - Premiership - Friday 10th May 2024 - KO: 7:45pm
The likes of Clive (Eddie Jones is another prime example) are regularly guilty of trying to make things more complicated than they need to be, because they're trying far too hard to look clever. Steward just needs to play a bit better. That's all. The same could be said of Tigers as a whole at the ...

Kata on the wing is not an experiment, that is the position he p!ays for his country on a regular basis. I feel that the experiment of playing him at 12 has restricted our backs, he is a good player but he is not a distributor and in my opinion that is what is required in that position. Freddie is ...

Re: New Supporters Forum?
I've heard some things that were said at the supporters forum were asked to be kept in the room. Can anyone who was there say if it's information/club plans that will be released soon or at all? I think you're referring to the evening where McKellar and Wilkes were questioned by season ticket holde...

Re: Tigers v Bristol (H) - Premiership - Saturday 27th April 2024 - KO: 15-00
Yep, we lost 3 out of 4 while half the team was away at the world cup, then won 6 out of 8 in the prem with wins against all the teams that are getting the plaudits - Sarries, Bath and Saints.
Back to 3 losses out of 4 since the 6N.

I've only seen the clip of Kinder's try, but by all accounts he was excellent against a decent senior professional side. Give him a go, what's the worst that can happen? Do you have a link to the clip? Not sure if this will work... https://www.instagram.com/reel/C6hKbe9Mc1x/?igsh=dzNpNmtrY3E2NnFj

Re: Champions and Challenge Cup Semi-finals - 2024
Marler is indeed an intelligent man, but he gets a bit too carried away at times with the "rugby banter" and his self created wind up merchant persona. It might work occasionally, but this is far from the first time that he, and his teammates, have seen it backfire catastrophically. The he...

Re: Champions and Challenge Cup Semi-finals - 2024
Really good performance by Saints, they just needed to be more accurate in the first half.
The two "Irish" Kiwis were the difference.

I've heard that even Ben Youngs' critics think he's still "of a decent standard" so I reckon he's got plenty left in him.

Re: 23/24 Injury/Suspension/Absent International List
The fourth official also noted that both sides had behaved with "notably poor values" during the game.
That was pretty obvious. Way too much backchat to the referee, but he seemed to enjoy it.

Re: Transfers & Rumours Non-Tigers 2022
True they were awful for his first 2 seasons and are likely to end up with as many trophies as Tigers this We're only in his second season, and he took them from bottom to 8th in his first. Apologies so less clubs and big improvements from 1st to 2nd season and Bath were arguably in in a worse posi...
