Re: Matt O'Connor In...Mauger Out
The Dream Ticket of Mauger (to get us throwing the ball about) and Cockers (to maintain the traditional Tigers forward dominance) never worked out and that was disappointing. Whether it was just a clash of personalities or whether you can't have it both ways is the question. A return to Matt O'Conno...

Re: Away to Saints
Not sure about a "proper Tigers team". Props and Hooker were passing the ball!G.K wrote:Great win, credit to all concerned, almost starting to look like a 'proper' Tigers team.
Some silly defensive lapses to work on though.

Re: Away to Saints
Great game and a good/vital win. Keeping feet firmly grounded though as I can't quite work out if we beat a good or average Saints side? We played some good stuff but there were some lapses (see minute 1) and we conceded 31. Defend like that against the top 3 and we'll lose by 10-20 every time. But...

Re: Away to Saints
Loved it! Brilliant win. Looking at the forwards before the game, who would have thought that we would dominate the scrums? Cole and Genge are becoming a real force now.

Re: Matt O'Connor In...Mauger Out
MOC is head coach.
We have not recruited a DOR.
Mike Ford is leaving Toulon!

Re: Leicester Tigers 2016/17 Squad/Transfers/Contract thread
Folk seem to think I have an issue with players like Thacker, well yes I do actually, they aren't good enough, it's as simple as that and given the manner of defeats we have suffered I don't think it's entirely unreasonable to possess such an opinion. He's a very good player but one of many very go...

Re: Leicester Tigers 2016/17 Squad/Transfers/Contract thread
Dr H Flashman MBE BFG, I understand that you don't rate Thacker, but even you must admit that putting in 33 tackles during a game is emense? I think he deserves a contract, and listening to Ben Kay he appears to think so too. Just whether he signs it or not I guess. But credit where it's due BFG, y...

Re: Freddie Burns unhappy with his Leicester Tigers departur
Burns started the season well and since the merry-go-round has been resolved he has been very good. Talk about shooting yourself in the foot, this saga is right up there with the best. I thought he was brilliant in the AWC semi-final at the Allianz which IMO was one of the individual performances o...

I have been waiting for weeks for Tigers to announce that Harry Thacker and Ellis Genge have re-signed. Please let's have a Magic Monday!

Re: AWC final
Brilliant defence, solid scrums and competing at the line outs, excellent performance. I just hope there is something left in the tank for next week.

Re: Greetings and DoR suggestion
I really like Flatman as a pundit, perceptive with a dry sense of humour, but I would not want him as a DOR....which is what this thread is about!

Re: Ireland vs England
Conor Murray and Kearney out of the game through injury. Would have been good to see Youngs up against Murray but, in reality, the scrum-halves' relative performance is more down to the strength of their respective packs than anything else. Ireland will miss Murray. On the contrary, an average scru...
