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

Leicester Tigers boss Dan McKellar has moved to strengthen his squad for next season with the double signing of NSW Waratahs outside centre Izaia Perese and Wales loosehead Nicky Smith. Perese, 26, who was a member of Eddie Jones Wallabies World Cup squad, has now signed for Tigers and will be join...

Re: International Eligibility

Personally, I'd go with country of birth only. There are current players who'd miss out, I know, but that just makes room for others. I like the passport idea though.

Re: 2024 Six Nations Chat

It's what you would expect when 2/3 of a starting XV and close to 2/3 of a squad are playing together week in week out all season long. If you think about it it's criminal that Ireland and Ireland don't clean up everything domestic, European and Internationally. It's a huge failure on their part wh...

Re: Saudi Arabia in talks to buy stake in Tigers

I’d hope it’s about sponsorship, not share ownership. No controlling interest, no conflict

Re: Transfers & Rumours Non-Tigers 2022

I wouldn’t be surprised to see more turnover at Sarries. The long contracts signed to keep players there during there relegation are now ending, hence Farrell’s move, and with the Wray connection loosening further it seems that change is underway.

Re: Tigers v Quins (A) - Premiership - Friday 26th January 2024 - KO- 19:45

1st Quins try should have been a penalty to us at the ruck. Poor box kick resulted from pressure from an off side player, who never retreated behind the ruck before charging Whiteley. So, really, Quins were lucky to be so close.

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

Leinster by 11-20 Unfortunately I agree, we are not getting anything out of this one. Hoping for one of those gritty performances when we scrape a win but when you are basically playing the Ireland national team (not sour grapes or complaining, just a statement of fact) I do not hold out our chance...

Re: Tigers v Saracens (H) - Premiership - Saturday 06th January 2024 - KO- 3-05pm

Can't help wondering if, with the quality of Sarries play, their position in the league, the departures in recent times plus the rumoured loss of Farrell, the advantages of cheating on the salary cap may finally be tapering out.

Re: 23/24 Injury/Suspension/Absent International List

Hopefully the release of Powell means our cover at 9 is good and JVP is due to return sooner rather than later.

Kata was strapped up by the physio on the pitch, but removed it all when sat in the dugout. Read into that what you will

Re: LEICESTER TIGERS 2023/24 - Crocodile McKeller: Men at Work

Genge took a paycut to go back to Bristol so he could be with his family, I doubt he wants to move away from them again already. Where have the reports that he's unsettled come from? I don't buy the paycut narrative.It was a year when he would have had to take a paycut if he'd stayed as well, it al...
