Leicester Tigers

I thought I could remember Murphy dropping a very ugly drop goal here at Welford Road

This was always about individual performance, a lot of these players have been playing for different championship clubs therefore cohesion was never going to be as good as Gloucester’s who’s players simply just play for Hartpury where the first team train anyway. Is that a fair excuse, after all we...

Whats the score please?

I’m personally looking forward to this match. To me this is where the season really starts. The players available make it the first match where there’s no excuses about who’s available and after the game I think we will be a lot clearer as to where we can be expected to finish this season. A win aw...

So what do I know about rugby- Nothing. I take back all my doubts, well done Tigers its great to get an away win. Did they award the MOM too soon, surely those 2 rips by Thomson should have rewarded hin? Well done again!

Don't know about Saints fully deserving the win got the rub of the green on a few calls in that final 10 minutes. Good game though. Just seen Saints final try RB definitely a block on the Treviso chaser in the lead up shouldn’t have been given, awful officiating Fully agree, also Saints forward pas...

Top 6 may be a bit ambitious given our start to the season. There was talk of how we always find form when it matters for the play offs last season! The logical way of looking at this is we are prioritising the use of our England players for the league over second tier European matches. So if we fa...

Yes, why not?

What's with the bench are Tigers looking to throw the match? Certainly looks like it to me, like I said earlier "a bird in the hand etc," it's certainly easier to qualify from this comp so why put all your faith in achieving top 6, that could backfire badly and we end up with nothing! :sm...

Exactly.

TPN is injured, he had an operation to his injured elbow, he is out for 4 weeks. My view is we should put out our strongest team, exclude plastic players, it's easier to Qualify for Champions Cup through this comp than reaching the top six in the prem. Play them in this fixture, win and then see how...

I thought he played well. Safe under the high ball and took responsibility at the restart. Not sure why he came off at half-time, replaced by Guy T. I'd keep him as a good squad player to cover injuries and rotation. Obviously this depends on other players being available. Came off for HIA Thanks f...
