Re: Worcester vs Tigers

If you have to kick possession away to conserve energy does that suggest questionable fitness.

Re: Worcester vs Tigers

Not sure where we go from here. It won't happen but perhaps relegation would be the kick up the :censored: we need.

Re: Worcester vs Tigers

The coaching manuals say there is a advantage in kicking for territory. The coaching manual needs re-writing to emphasise that it only holds if you are any good at it. How many years have we kicked to the opposition back three and allowed them to run back 30+ metres.

Re: Worcester vs Tigers

Well at least we didn't surrender halfway through the 2nd half.

Re: Wales v England

Without doubt the Wales back 3 are a different class to the others in the competition so if a kicking game was to be the main strategy then it had to be executed with extreme precision. It wasn't. I doubt that against that opposition it was a viable tactic anyway. Wales played well and Gatland out t...

Re: Wales v England

Looked like England had been watching Tigers play the kicking from hand was so poor.

Re: Manu's replacement

We should give Manu a date to commit by, if he has not made up his mind. To let it drag on would be a disaster if he does. We could miss out on a top replacement. How? Manu is not being bought out of his contract therefore we’re not going to receive a significant subsidiary. Sure his 430k in the ca...

Re: LEICESTER TIGERS 2018/19 SQUAD/TRANSFERS/CONTRACT THREAD PART 5

Good news injury wise. Early on I thought he was pretty destructive and carried well. Going to be exciting watching him at WR Im just hoping we can keep Thompson, Spencer and Evans fit. Adding a big 8 like Akira Ioane would be too much to ask I suppose.

Re: LEICESTER TIGERS 2018/19 SQUAD/TRANSFERS/CONTRACT THREAD PART 5

I've not seen a lot of SR but watched the 'saders v blues last weekend. JT didn't have his best game I suspect and was subbed reasonably early. Hope that was tactical and not an injury.

Re: Worcester vs Tigers

This could be a close game as long as we don't capitulate in the 2nd half.

Re: Hé hasn’t exactly got the best squad . . . . .

Two reflections. Yes there are questions about the BoD, and I am of one mind with Sapajo that BK, RU and GG carry most of the blame along with Cohen, Peter Tom and those 'influential senior players'. I don't expect much change there. Having said that it is IMO 2012 when the first failures to spend ...

Re: Hé hasn’t exactly got the best squad . . . . .

It must be said. We have not recruited well for a number of years. The odd gem but that seems almost an accident statistically.
