Leicester Tigers

The message earlier this week was we were going to take the shackles off and play a bit, I didn't know they meant defensive shackles and let Castres play a bit

Until anything is anounced, we don’t know what has happened. Inside Rugby Line just spouts rubbish and so much of it on a daily basis sometimes it happens to be true. However would be another blow if we fail to sign him. How many players have we come out publicly saying we’re interested in, that Au...

From the Irish Examiner: "Cordero’s name is one of several being circulated by agents looking for prospective contract offers from European clubs but it is understood Munster have no interest in making a bid." Apparently he is definitely not coming to Tigers due to us dragging our feet, a...

Can't understand why we are not fielding our best available side against Castres this weekend surely hasn't anyone told Matt O'Connor that we still have a mathematical chance of finishing second in the group if we can get maximum points and Munster thrash Racing,leaving 2nd place to be decided a we...

For the first half a season last year, Guy Thompson definitely isn't the answer but he would make an awesome super sub type who can cover 6, 7 and 8 competently

I feel like Smithy would retire rather than look for another team, he bleeds red, white and green

I'm sure you're right.

I hope.

I think the plan is probably ditch Brady, Catchpole and possibly one or both of Tait and Smith to make room for him next season

Looking at the table, not simply points but points scored and difference for / against it looks like we'll be fighting for 6th base on form to date. In no order, Saracens, Wasps, Exeter, Bath, look top 4 obvious choices. We'll be competing with Quins, Sale, Newcastle, and Glouc for 5th and 6th. Sal...

'Tigers Fans' on Twitter just tweeted this: "Turns out MOC is being given the season to prove himself. Top 6 and he keeps his job. Below 6th and he’s sacked. Mark Bakewell is due to sign as forwards coach, just sorting the details out." I don't think a mid season sacking would have worked...

Simon Cohen has effectively destroyed rumours that YBY is leaving, amen 🙏 to that. http://www.bristolpost.co.uk/sport/rugby/rugby-news/leicester-tigers-ceo-simon-cohen-1032507 I don’t know it seem from that comment that we are doing everything to keep him, but we’ve been in talks with him since Sep...
