He is a vintage Ferrari that keeps breaking down. Expensive to own and rarely fit for the road an expensive liability and luxury.

Re: Tigers v Sale (A) - Premiership - Friday 10th May 2024 - KO: 7:45pm

All I see is the same tactics as we had under Borthwick but executed badly. I expected an evolution not a revolution and we have been merely served up stagnation.

Re: Dan Mckellar

DMK is here for next season. Give him the right tools to get the best from the team he will have / want This is what has been lacking this season. Always a hill to climb following his employment. If same chaos continues - lack of attacking structure. Discipline and lack of fitness then and only the...

I feel that way now and that does not excite me

For every Matt O'Connor , there is a Pat Howard or a Bob Dwyer....For me its about ability not nationality..... For me, jury out on Dan McK 'till this time next season. Totally agree with this and if we haven’t moved on significantly by that time then calls for him to move on would be correct imo S...

I take no consolation from Glos because we lost to them twice this season just shows how poor we truly are :smt012 But on the flip side you could argue we pushed Saints all the way on their home turf and it was only the red card that swung the game..

Poor kick away from Whiteley could have cost us a try for what? A truly turgid performance I am not looking forward to next season something has to change and quickly Completely disagree. 2m out from his own line, slow ball - found a good touch. It was before that when he kicked the ball over the t...

In fairness to Saints they recovered very well and came close to winning. Something we never did in both our Leinster matches.

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

Seeing the bigger picture and applying a bit of considered thought produces the conclusion that having scored try no 3, the pursuit of no 4 became the objective, and along with that came the increasing risk of losing the game. In the end, that turned into more of a last-ditch gamble, like the "...

I still believe though that the offici...
