Leicester Tigers

I can’t believe Freddy Steward won - I only believe what I read on here and as far as I am aware he’s not fast enough, not strong enough, doesn’t beat a man and is basically massively overrated and been rubbish all year.

The RPA have clearly got it wrong or don’t know as we do.

Close fought game, Sale were better and deserved the win. I think people are being incredibly harsh on JVP, Steward and Youngs - all were decent but the difference between the teams was Ford who was imperious, made it easy for their 9s (and the team in general) as he just controlled everything and g...

Nice article on George Martin in the Times

Really good read - thanks for sharing!

Telegraph reporting Ant Watson could be on the way to Sarries - would be interesting and means Duncan Taylor, Jackson Wray and Sean Maitland making way for the cap. Seems odd in a WC year to spend big on a player they’ll miss a fair chunk of the season and lose 3 players they’d have all season but t...

And Damien McKenzie

And Caucau

Contepomi would be a massive statement signing Even if he doesn’t come show the calibre we are after. Anyway nice to have a couple of actual rumours again lol Adam Byrne Contepomi Contepomi would be incredible IMO and potentially a succession plan if after 3-4 years McKellar has done such a great j...

Decent

The challenge is keeping all our home grown players within the cap as they develop into (hopefully!) international stars and expect wages to follow. Within a salary cap that is going to be pretty difficult if or as Heyes, Dolly, Martin, Chessum, Henderson, Reffell, JVP, Kelly, Porter, Steward all ma...

Rant over.....off to bed.

If they hadve had a league game last week they would have rested 10 or 11 players too!

It’s why Sarries felt the need to cheat

Getting smashed in the forwards since Heyes, Cronin and Montoya have gone off.

JVP not been accurate enough - neither has Pollard ball in hand.

Centres not in sync early on

We were in it and then imploded once Doris got a yellow - that scrum penalty in our 22 killed us and any chance we had

Looking at the teams, I don't think it will be as one-sided as the Irish press presume. We might even snatch this. That is basically Ireland - best team in the world so its a huge challenge. Our two props & two locks aren't even regular internationals so there is a disparity in experience but t...

May as well toss a coin and see who wins now then

Get Brad Thorn in!

Can see Quins playing loose and free if their season is done by the final game - unfortunately that probably suits them so that could be a tough game if it’s a freebie for them
