Re: Tigers v Bath

Agree with Scott :smt003 , Lawes would walk into the tigers team as would the other three England locks. Barrow has the potential to be an international but based on last season he isn't at that level yet, maybe this year he can make the step up. Kitchener and Fitzgerald are good club players but a ...

Re: Tigers v Bath

Here is what I think the starting line up will look like 1 Genge 2 Youngs T 3 Logo 4 Barrow 5 Kitchener 6 Hamilton 7 O'Connor (if fit or W Evans) 8 Kalamafoni 9 Youngs B 10 Ford G 11 May 12 Toomoua 13 Tuilagi 14 Brady (if fit or Holmes) 15 Veianu Subs Bateman, Bet...

Re: Tigers vs Ospreys teams

I can't recall seeing Thommo in any pre-season pictures or, as you say, on the squad photo. My only guess is that he's either injured or on an extended break for whatever reason. If it is for personal reasons then perhaps that's why we've not had any mention of it from MOC. Hope it doesn't mean he ...

Re: Team vs Ospreys

The maul defence was indeed poor all year and I hope that someone has started to address the issue - if not results will not go our way , even if our stella backline does get on the pitch . Maul attack was awful too,away in Racing was cringe worthy! Exeter at home as well we were hopeless at defend...

Re: Team vs Ospreys

It's not the fact you disagree with me. OK so he thinks he's more of a lock but it's a fact he was much better the first season from blindside,player of the season sort of gives it away it bit,it's the way you go out of your way just to try and prove me wrong which you've got form for with other co...

Re: Team vs Ospreys

Fitzgerald does much more than a lot of people give him credit for but everyone has their favoured combinations Maybe I have the name wrong, but the centre we signed from the Scarlets in the summer He was very good in his first season. In the second season he looked like he was struggling to keep u...

Looks like I've got a stalker! Nice one sad act 😉 So I post on this forum and so do you that means I'm stalking you. Literally anytime I post something which disagrees with your post you decide to start hurling insults. It's called a forum it would be pretty boring if we all had the same opinion on...

Re: Team vs Ospreys

Spot on Sam and the reason for that is he's a better 6 than lock! I'm going to get you a t shirt with that on. As I always say each to their own but I'm pretty sure if you asked him he would say he's a lock rather than a 6 and we have plenty of strength in depth at 6 this season Would he? You do kn...

Re: Leicester Tigers 2017/18 Squad/Transfers/Contract thread!

MOC was asked on Radio Leicester if there will be anymore new signings, he said that they are always looking to add quality players. Seemed like a rehearsed answer but he didn't rule out new signings or say that the squad was complete for this season. DMAC at 15 for the All Blacks...surely that will...

Re: Leicester Tigers 2017/18 Squad/Transfers/Contract thread!

Let's go best XV then Genge Young's Cole Barrow Kitchener Fitzgerald BOC Kalamafoni Youngs Ford May Toomua Tuilagi Thompstone Veainu Surely Mike Williams over Kitchener. I know he drops the ball a lot but apart from that he adds so much more physicality on both sides of the ball. I think MOC may al...

Re: Leicester Tigers 2017/18 Squad/Transfers/Contract thread!

If you were there, you would realise Tiger's failure to sub as defence wilted in 30 odd degrees temperature, around 60 mins, significantly cut the defence line speed and width. After that Ford was allowed to run laterally as well as forward, and outrun the labouring defence. Having said that, we we...

Re: Leicester Tigers 2017/18 Squad/Transfers/Contract thread!

Re-watch Tigers loss to Bath at Twickenham last season and see if you still think we haven't upgraded with Ford coming in. If you were there, you would realise Tiger's failure to sub as defence wilted in 30 odd degrees temperature, around 60 mins, significantly cut the defence line speed and width....
