Re: LEICESTER TIGERS 2023/24 - Crocodile McKeller: Men at Work

I agree, we should by now have been given full details of our men's and Senior Academy squads, it was intimated that we would have this information when training recommenced but here we are two days prior to the first serious match of the season and we have not been told. Of course if you want deta...

Re: Rhys Webb and Elton Jantjies

There is only so much Brains you can drink. Perhaps it's better in the pub but the Brains they served at the Millenium was dire. Mind you the Guinness when Tigers beat Leinster (going back a few years ago) was the worst I had ever tasted. Fortunately we found much better in the pubs in Dublin! The ...

Re: Still stuck in the mud! - Development updates

Out of interest I wanted to see if the pitch had been relaid during the summer, although it did look magnificent at the end of the season. So I went to the stadium webcams and there is no longer a working camera on the pitch just the hotel and plaza camera. Are Tigers scared the opposition might see...

Re: 2023/24 Premiership Rugby Cup

It will be good to see these Championship clubs at Tigers and see how they develop with this competition. I suppose the Ampthill "Mob!" will include the ex-Tigers vocal superstar Tom Hardwick at flyhalf. I think there are other ex-Tigers in these teams too. I welcome this competition, but ...

Re: Transfers & Rumours Non-Tigers 2022

Freddie Burns having returned from Highlanders has been spending a lot of time with Andy Robinson and Bath, apart from his trip to Northern Ireland for his brothers wedding, so I am advised. Player / Coach maybe?

Re: LEICESTER TIGERS 2022/23 Squad and transfers thread part 2: The Lion, the Wig and the Wardrobe

You would have thought they would need to hang onto as many bodies as they could A quick look at our own website shows plenty of players who are not here next season. Yeh but he hasn’t been announced as a leaver yet either Well Mike Williams is not on the Exeter official players listing having been...

A player that gives it ALL for his country but his back injury, age and others are not on his side. A proud Welshman - take a breather.

Re: Premiership restructuring draws closer

That paragraph has me extremely uneasy. How do you even measure the strength of a brand name reliably? Social media follower numbers can be fluffed and they aren't a reliable source of information to who actually engages with the brand (This is why youtube ad revenue is done based on viewers per vi...

Re: Exiles set for Exile?

I think the clubs must work harder in the community to get more families interested. From my experience of coaching school children they really enjoy the players coming to help with coaching and in the past this then meant families, pestered by their children attended some matches. For Tigers The A...

Harry Glynn has just scored what looks like the winning try for La Rochelle against Stade Francais Good for him. 2 Top 14 appearances, 3 tries! Sign him up! :smt003 So much for Harry Glynn's performance for La Rochelle ~ he has been offloaded to lower Beziers, another team that Tigers played agains...

Worth keeping an eye on perhaps. I hope we see him back in the Prem. Don't think we want Worth back in a Tigers shirt, thanks HC! :smt002 Probably not but it's easier to keep an eye on him now he's playing for Ampthill. Well that is confusing there is no George Worth on the Ampthill players listing...

Re: Transfers & Rumours Non-Tigers 2022

Looks like the tax men have eventually caught up with Wasps director and BT commentator Lawrence Dallaglio for £700k.
That beats the Wasps debt too!
