Re: Tigers vs Falcons - 28th March 2021 at 15:00

Hurrah, finally a balanced, reasoned post! What’s balanced about it? De Bruin did nothing wrong at all,it was a joke decision! It's OK Scott, we very rarely agree on anything *sniggers* I'm not saying that the game was reffed well or justly. I thought that Dickson was pretty awful and the TMO likew...

Re: European Challenge Cup - Tigers vs Connacht Sat 03 Apr 21 at 2000

Knockout rugby. Biggest game of the season to date, so would expect us to go full tilt in terms of selection. Expect this to mean B Youngs back at 9 and Lavanini returning to the 23. Really interested to see what partnership we go with at 12/13, Kelly for me deserves to keep his spot, but have a fe...

Re: Sat 20th March - Exeter away

Some of the earlier comments on this thread not backing our lads are so disheartening ! If you have played sport to a good level you will know you have to dig in when things aren’t going to plan ! If you don’t you get nothing back ! I get the feeling that those who expect things to go right all the...

Re: BRISTOL vs TIGERS - Sat 27 Feb 21 (1300)

Its all about winning sick to death of losing and not being hammered is no consolation. Exeter, second in the league have lost 4 games. As have Sale, Quins and Saints. Falcons and Irish have lost 5 and Wasps, 6. Tigers have lost 6. That’s a crazy stat! Doesn’t feel like it but shows that everyone i...

Re: 20th Feb 2021 - Home vs Wasps

Only shame was Henry’s kicking otherwise we could’ve chased the TBP. . We did, just that we were poor in the red zone too often!!! We had the opportunities for the bonus points, it wasn't Henry you was to blame in those circumstances. You missed my point mate. If he hadve kicked his points off the ...

Re: Tigers v Bayonne

Don't know if this is old hat or. I'm often behind the times but it looks off as far as the French are concerned with cross border sport being banned. 6N in trouble too. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/rugby-union/2021/01/09/exclusive-champions-cup-pools-stage-rounds-postponed-six-nations/ 6N doesn't h...

Re: Danny Cipriani

Sam Harrison and Matt Dawson have been very vocal about the fact that they chose to play rugby and knew that there were risks associated with the game. Procedures and protocols have been put in place in recent times to address the issues if Head Injuries and impacts which can only be good for the g...

Also played Sir Percival in Merlin on BBC a few years ago. Thanks for the information guys. Still none the wiser. I only know 3 Luthers - Vandross , the detective played by Idris Elba and the heretic priest of the Reformation. I've never watched Game of Thrones or Merlin. Anyway as a Tigers fan he'...

So - Richard Wilks it is, according to TRP. Hardly 'strategic' other than to say ' Borthwick gets what Borthwick wants'! ..wasn't that the same thing, that the Board said about Murphy!!! Nothing was going to be too much and we believe in his plan so much, we will make him DoR as he will have comple...

there will be games where young Steward needs to drop out simply to manage his levels, despite his size he is still a young man and we need to be careful with him ...he stood out in the game and was very positive under the high ball and in possession!!!

But I remember the great Eddie Waring extolling its use on Saturdays Grandstand. Eddie Waring - legend! Up ‘n’ unders and an early bath!! ...takes you back a bit!!
