Re: LEICESTER TIGERS 2018/19 SQUAD/TRANSFERS/CONTRACT THREAD PART 7

Oh the old 3 year project excuse! Didnt hear Bristol say that upon promotion or Quins who are losing an incredible amount of players. Every GP club is in constant transition,some more than others granted,but it's the nature of the beast,I'm sick of excuses tbh! Agreed it should be a continuous proc...

Re: LEICESTER TIGERS 2018/19 SQUAD/TRANSFERS/CONTRACT THREAD PART 6

An enforcer at last! Liking this a lot- Great signings in the forwards addressing the blatantly obvious weaknesses in the pack of this season - And not forgetting the previously announced Taufau. Suddenly having a wave of optimism for next season. Get the fitness levels up, keep the card count down,...

Re: Quins vs Tigers

A good effort at the end to be fair. The Quins game has convinced me:- 1. From day one of this season the others teams seem to have simply been better conditioned. Once again a good start tonight then gradually fading away with inevitable mistakes. I don’t think it’s lack of heart as defence has cer...

Re: Tigers v Newcastle - 12th April 2019

When backs are to the wall leaders emerge. Tommo and Ford were those leaders and two players we can build a winning team around. They were the difference tonight. Tommo is like a Tigers of old - passionate, fighting and provides a rallying point when we are backs to the wall. And tonight a leader by...

Re: Tigers v Newcastle - 12th April 2019

Blindside again! Olowofela needs replacing with someone able to tackle or we are going to get ripped apart down that wing in the second half.

Great first 30 mins by Tigers though.

Re: Positives

Positives You may not agree with some but here goes:- 1. Exeter Chiefs. Sometimes you’ve got to appreciate and applaude a rival team at the very top of their game. Thats the team you get with a long term strategy, a game plan with a plan b, spot on recruitment and talent spotting. Led by a Board tha...

Re: Tigers v Chiefs

Been around long enough to know that any result is possible. On paper and current form Exeter won’t lose. However, on paper we still have world class players who, though looking tired and out of sorts against what I thought was an excellent Saints performance, have now had two weeks to recover from ...

Re: LEICESTER TIGERS 2018/19 SQUAD/TRANSFERS/CONTRACT THREAD PART 6

It would be interesting to know the impact of our table position on our potential signings. If your a marquee star player being chased by a number of clubs, would you think twice about coming to a team (a club?) now low in confidence, highly likely not to be in the top tier of European rugby next se...

Re: Tigers v Saints

That was painful to watch. The “relegation” word was being openly discussed in my part of the stadium. And among very long term fans. Struggling for positives though I thought both Thompson played well and Ford was excellent (again). Other than that the only ones who seemed to have any energy were o...

Re: Tigers v Wasps

JF played a blinder and fully deserved MOTM, JPD made some decisions actually in our favour, and JH played very well at Scrum Half.

Can someone confirm I’m not in some weird dream......

Re: Tait Retires

A great Tigers servant who gave his all, thanks for the memories Mat https://www.leicestertigers.com/news/tigers-favourite-tait-ends-playing-career +1 :smt023 That cover tackle he did in the Wasps game last year ranks near the top my best memories at Welford Road. https://www.rugbyworld.com/news/wa...
