Re: Leicester Tigers 2016/17 Squad/Transfers/Contract thread 4

Point taken, but I think this would be even more ridiculous. We'll be bolstering the backs, I'm quite sure.

Re: For anyone planning to go to New Zealand for the Lions tour.

How much are the price of tickets in dollars this year, just out of interest?

I think I paid $100 for the cheapest test tickets at Eden Park last time out, I assume it's much more this year.

Re: Money where your mouth is time

Big shout on Gloucester. The more I think of it, you might not be far wrong. It just seems that they go into every season with the attitude of "that's it, this time we've nailed it. I know we said we'd nailed it last season but this time we really have." This season, I think their fans are...

I'd say it is absolutely inconceivable that our summer business is over. I'm very confident that we'll have quality starting players arriving before too long.

Re: Watching the Lions

Having 0.5p on the bench makes no sense. I like him, he's a good player. But he's hardly an impact player. That slot really should have gone to North.

Itoje being left out beggars belief.

Hi Cagey Tiger....it is definitely just you. Meanwhile....Tigers Admin ducks for cover We agree with some of the colour scheme, particularly around differentiating between posts, so we'll look at some restyling once we've gone live with the new website next Tuesday. Keep any feedback coming...we ma...

Re: New Forum!

The new forum is much much better to read on a mobile device (finally!) Must admit I never had a problem with the old forum on my tablet. Most websites are poor on a mobile phone. The old forum was not optimised for mobile devices. As such if you loaded it on a mobile or tablet it appeared very sma...

Re: Gareth Owen - New Signing From Scarlets

Am not going wild. Deffo not Fekitoa :smt027 :smt017 Well no, but neither is he intended to be. If we're not able to sign someone of the calibre of Fekitoa or McKenzie (for instance) it won't be because we've signed Owen. This signing has no bearing on the big signings, I'm quite confident on that.

Re: Gareth Owen - New Signing From Scarlets

Unbelievable scenes on the Facebook group over this. He's clearly not being signed as a starter, so he won't be costing a lot. He clearly isn't at the expense of a big name signing. He has experience at the top level. He covers a number of positions that we require depth for. Therefore on the face o...

Re: New Forum!

Worth mentioning that as it stands there is no link back to the main club website. I assume in time that the logo in the banner will hyperlink to the club homepage? Or that the website banner will reappear at the top when the full site goes live?

Personally I agree with the sentiment that avatars would be best on the left, but this is a step forward.

Owen strikes me as a handy squad player to plug a gap. Fine by me. I don't think he's intended as a first choice.

Not like they are like for like signings in terms of positions.



Although on paper it does look very much like another pointless journeyman signing.

Re: Watching the Lions

Well you can only beat what's in front of you, and they did it well tonight. Nice to see the back three playing as a unit, some lovely lines cut and some good support running. The last two games we've been pretty good. I still can't see anything other than a big All Blacks win, but I don't think it'...
