Have had to stop watching in 2nd half, but see another yellow for Manu. What was it for?
It was a team one for multiple offsides. Didn’t come back on though
Thx. There’s me thinking it was bound to be another poor tackle technique card! My bad 😳

Re: Fixtures - 21st to 23rd April 2023

Obviously want Glaws to win although it seems like grasping at the proverbial straws as can’t see the Falcons getting a win at Enya Agree - but if Gloucester win today then Sale can’t afford to take their foot off the gas in their last game. And even if the most likely outcome is we have to go to t...

Re: Fixtures - 21st to 23rd April 2023

Bassett is playing well. It’s good we will have another option there when Steward is away and (curveball) I think Newcastle should give Radwan a run at FB, just to get the ball in his hands - against a disorganised defence - more often. That’s quite a curveball. The ‘Radwan tackles’ video is the sh...

https://twitter.com/Saracens/status/1649367378860359682?t=6Iwsm8VguatlQgqSVmNuaA&s=19 Sarries have gone all out vs London Irish so may well have some stuff sewn up before our game if Sarries win Sarries want the win tomorrow, as this would guarantee they avoid a playoff against Tigers. If Irish...

Season stats so far…

https://www.premiershiprugby.com/gallagher-premiership-rugby/statistics/team-stats/ Some fascinating snippets here: Tigers have the lowest number of penalties conceded. Tigers joint 2nd on tries scored (behind Saints, but level with those ‘champagne rugby’ darlings of the London-centric media, LI an...

Re: Tigers Coaching Team - 2023/2024 Season

I wonder if it’s our scrum that has got worse, or other teams have got better, realising the importance of it. It’s very rare over an 80 minute period that we are bested, and I would still back us to get a penalty on our own put in when required I’d say very close to best scrummaging team in the Pr...

Re: LEICESTER TIGERS 2022/23 - Prisoner of Oadby Pre-Season

RagingBull - could we move on from 'Prisoner of Oadby Pre-Season'? We've had nearly 3000 replies on 194 pages! I quite like Oadby, and have always thought the name of this topic to be a bit negative! You always used to move on after a period of time...? Ok, yeh I will do. I’ll do it after work With...

Re: LEICESTER TIGERS 2022/23 - Prisoner of Oadby Pre-Season

They're both fantastic finishers but I do seem to remember Wade had a habit of scoring 4-5 vs the lower end teams and not so much against top sides, that may not be true though just the impression I got I'd have to do a deep dive on Wade specifically here but having done them before surrounding thi...

Re: Ellis Genge cited

What Tigers player? You asked how would I feel if it had been a Tigers player in that scenario Kini got yellow carded for sliding in on someone I think last season, may have been the season before... Difference being that was after the try had been scored so in that instance it was deemed a yellow ...
