Re: Tigers post Borthwick - next Head Coach?

I believe we were told porkies Interesting, what makes you say that? Inside info? Just the fact that Pinchen stated on RL that WW had been set zero targets and he would be in considered for the permanent position of HC . Now Tigers have said WW is off and Pinchen has stated publicly that somehow WW...

Re: LEICESTER TIGERS 2022/23 - Prisoner of Oadby Pre-Season

Shocked by some of the negative comments. Shillcock - arguably Bath’s best player this season at 15 and a quality addition. Great backup to Steward and for me an upgrade on Burns. Hatherell - we’ve all been moaning about the physicality in the backrow when Wiese is away. Can also cover lock and rum...

Re: Edinburgh match.

Also, anyone who subscribes to the excellent rolling maul pod will have heard Bondi speaking on the matter and revealing (maybe too much) about the other factors affecting the decision.... So - key point other than the obvious financial tightrope all clubs are walking is this - because there is no h...

Re: Tigers v Ospreys (H) - Friday 20th January 2023 - KO 20:00

Ospreys have announced their team to face Leicester Tigers in the Heineken Champions Cup. The game will take place on Friday and will kick off at 8pm at Mattioli Woods Welford Road. The lineup sees minimal changes from the Ospreys side that beat Montpellier Herault last week. The only change in the ...

Anthony Watson

Arundell and Watson injured........

And Sb can only change 5 outside of injuries so slightly limited

Re: 22/23 Injury & Suspension list

With regards to the comments on twitter - later on in the thread he admits he is using the fact that Wiese got hit in the back in the Clermont home game as his "evidence" and further admits that he has no insight on the matter at all - guess work and speculation.....

Re: Tigers v Newcastle (A) - Saturday 07th January 2023 - KO 14:00

Its not going to be "full noise" - we lost 3 to HIA last week, Freddie to a very nasty injury and we dont know whether Atkinson was rotated or injured, and we are not sure of Gopperths fitness either. Then add Watson who was withdrawn, Montoya in a knee brace, Wiese fitness unknown, Martin...

Re: Tigers post Borthwick - next Head Coach?

To go from Champions last season to having no specific targets for this season does not seem pretty sensible to me. His aim is to perform well enough to get the job. If he was say given a target of top 4, he finishes 3rd, but a different candidate (Robertson says it's his dream job for example) wou...

Re: New Borthwick England

I think we will see limited changes as I believe he can make a max of 5 - I think we will see him use the squad he has inherited and get them playing a more clear and structured set of tactics along with returning the levels of pack aggression we expect from England - and if he achieves that it will...
