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

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

Regrettably I have seen nothing recently to suggest that under this coach we will improve. Witness the same comments by supporters after every game. I don't blame the players. The way they play is an indication of how they are being coached - not very well from what I can see. I really think some p...

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

I mean not much point in talking about the comings and going for next season until we know what is the actual squad surely? Well its not as if the signings of Perese and Smith are not known and all the leavers are unknown? Historically we usually announce like 2/3 or so signings at the end of seaso...

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

I feel it’s pretty clear we spend up to the cap tbh During the premiership winning season we got lucky in that you had a decent amount of experience players all with no contracts anywhere Wigglesworth Murimurivalu Taute Montoya Moroni Ashton Saumaki Socino Burns All either had no other contracts, p...

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

If Andrea has stated that we are spending up to the cap, then the presence of a Women’s team has absolutely no impact on that! Indeed she has stated that. but I fail to see the evidence of it given this seasons comings and goings and the fact that we were paid handsomely by the RFU for Borthwick an...

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

Dont want to get involved in politics , dont know a Tigers woman player's name , but do we spend money on them at the expense of quality men, under the guise of'diversity??' I’d have thought we only have 1 pot of money that everything has to come from. The idea of running a women’s team is a great ...

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

Agree with RaginBull. So now let’s put it right v Exeter and Sale starting by trusting some of the youngsters like Carnduff, Vanes, FFT etc. into the squad or be really brave and put Cole, Montoya and Wiese on the bench especially if Heyes is fit! As for fitness: it’s an odd one as vLeinster and Ne...

Re: Tigers social post about threats

It's nothing to do with football*, it's all to with absolute idiots thinking it's ok because of the anonymity of the Internet. It's rife throughout all walks of social media life and it's pathetic. * If rugby fans want to take the high ground they really need to stop comparing rugby with football. ...

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

He has made some bad decisions but is playing the head coaches game plan. This season started fairly badly and is going down hill, feels a little unfair to focus on him when as a team we are not the sum of our parts - in my opinion. Mckellar said post match it was the players decision. So my questi...

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

These last few games seem born out of our poor and cheaper journey men recruitment over that last 2/3 seasons, and an inability to consistently bring talent through our academy. Now I appreciate we’re not millionaire own like bath so can’t go out and buy a new 1st team squad like they have, but sin...

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

Bristol were awful for 65 minutes, gave us so much attacking ball by trying to run from their own line, and we should have been 40 points up, not 19. Discipline has cost us again, as has lack of accuracy in attack. We managed to make Lahiff look like a good player. That's quite an astounding achiev...

Indeed but it must apply to everyone that resorts to abusive and/or threatening behaviour no matter who they are.
