Re: Next England Head Coach (Pre &/or Post World Cup)
I like many others would love Sir Kev to be head coach, but just suppose we have a top quality head coach lined up who has a favourite defence coach and the RFU offer us a few hundred grand to let Sir Kev go.....I may be dreaming but you never know!

Re: Tigers v Ospreys (A) - Sunday 11th December 2022 - KO 17.30
Lots of positives from a poor game. Add in Montoya, Pollard, Cole, Steward and the game is over at half time. I do think we miss Genges captaincy, he would have found a way to speak to the ref. Also I only noticed Simmons was playing when he was subbed... Atkinson had a good game today, improved ou...

Re: Tigers post Borthwick - next Head Coach?
If I were Borthwick, I would absolutely want Sir Kev with me. However, whilst I don't know him, if I were Sir Kev, given the choice right now between the poison chalice of England or head coach at the premiership champions, I know which I would go for.........

Re: England Squad - Autumn Internationals
The most frustrating thing is that we have the players. I know not all are fit but replace Hill with Launchbury and a backrow of Lawes or Chessum, Earl and Dombrant and selecting two actual centres and a speedster on the wing and its a different story. Other teams don't always have that luxury but w...

Re: England Squad - Autumn Internationals
When you have an erratic ref you need a calm captain to speak to him....that's not Farrell. Jvp had a poor start but needs time. Let's see what happens...

Re: Tigers v Bath (A) - 11th November 2022 - KO 19:45
100% agree with RBs team except Kelly can't be far away. If we had played that game 6 weeks earlier it would have been a tbp by half time and 50 plus points. We need to be able to close out these games and need better reserve props. Really hope Eddie wasn't watching as Martin is a much better 6 than...

Re: Tigers v Bath (A) - 11th November 2022 - KO 19:45
I don't know what the the record oldest halfback combination is but I cannot see us beating it! For me Burns at 10, and I wouldn't be shocked to see Youngs at 9. OK not the youngest combination...... Atkinson or Watson at 15. Henderson to possibly start. If Nadolo is fit he has to play. Kelly can't ...

Re: Premiership Games - 28th to 30th October 2022
For me the ref had authority, trusted his judgement, had good chemistry with the TMO and was usually right. Must be something wrong..... plus please can we have LRS?

Re: Tigers v Northampton (A) - 24th September 2022 - 3-00pm
What strikes me is we have 2 World class and 4 International class players missing and are away from home and Saints don't have anyone missing of that quality and yet most bookies have it too close to call or even us as slight favourites. It'll be close but it feels like they have more to lose.

After that Wales game, I suspect finding a no7 will be top of the shopping list for the season after this. I'd hate to see Tommy go but....

Re: Aus v England - 09th July 2022 - Team to save Eddies job!
Is it just me who has concerns about a 6 2 bench with both back subs only able to cover one position...if Smith, Farrell or Porter go down we could be in trouble. It also means we won't bring on Arundell until relatively late. Really happy for Porter and JVP

Re: Aus v England - 09th July 2022 - Team to save Eddies job!
What frustrated me today more than anything was the reluctance to use the subs backs earlier. Chessum to start for Hill next week. I would also drop Smith, that or drop Farrell
