Leicester Tigers

Inside track stuff! EggChasers on their newest podcast stated that the problem with Hansen was that he was trying to implement a new kind of D where the players 'play whats in form of them and try to anticipate more'. Being given the title 'Defence Coach' probably made him think he could/should re-...

We've always needed a scapegoat. Crane, Lloyd, Goode, Kardooni.... now it seems to be Tait. It's weird really. You are not wrong. Unfortunately in Tait's case he gets moved around due to his natural ability and is unsettled and often looks worse than he actually is. Chasing the game against Glasgow...

It’s very easy to panic with a loss like that, it was pretty humiliating. People want to throw Cockrill under the bus for our deficiencies in D when WE DONT HAVE A DEFENSE COACH! They're asking for change after we've already parted with potentially the weakest part of our back room staff. 'Time for...

I was referring to Genge's run in with the management at Brizzle and his subsequent improvement here, not the performance on Friday. This remark was made as it has been suggested that Odogwu and at least one other left because of non-playing issues. I see the age-groups as being slightly misleading...

We had a major clear-out and change of regime at age-group level which has not really had a chance to change things yet, though performances seem to be improving by the results gained. Players are moved on for other reasons than try-scoring; you only need to look at Genge for the difference that ha...

Players like Kitchener, Williams, Wood? Just the same a Newcastle's academy has always be represented and then cherry picked! Yawayawa is probably knocking on the door but a coach is more likely to go with someone like Odogwu now he's paying regular first team rugby ( awaits the often quoted list o...

A simple question....does Tait have something on RC as he is pencilled in every week on the team sheet. IMHO he has been a liability in every game he has played, delaying off loads, kicking aimlessly, poor decision making and terrible tackling. How did he play before Betham in the centre yesterday?...

No idea what the best half back combo is but the best 10 I have seen in a Leicester shirt this season is Harrison.

Away from home in Europe is always going to be difficult but Leicester didn't cope with the pressure very well when it came in my view. I thought at 22-13 Leicester were still in it but old scrum failings came back during a key period in the match and Leicester couldn't hold out with 14 men and were...
