Mulipola is one of those props who has played regularly on both sides, and no doubt practices regularly on both sides. This means that he is able to prop both sides.

When we signed him he was an 8 too... Wasn't he off to play at the back of the scrum for Hawkes Bay?

Probably fair. Ayerza and Cole to start v Stade with Aguero and Balmain on the bench... although we probably guessed that already!

I wonder if Aguero and Balmain may start away against Treviso?

Are they the three held last night?

Depending on other injuries and citing results we may need both!

England have taken a potentially world class player and turned him into something else. Give him a few weeks.

Possibly the most boring centre partnership Tigers could possibly field. :smt011 Smith was on fire last week and Bai can be pretty explosive so I respectfully disagree. Certainly not lacking for experience and nouse. Indeed. Maybe against Exeter with Whitten and Slade, these two are exactly what we...

His biog on this site say he is!

That'll be decent confirmation then!

Tigers have Ayerza, Bai, Betham, Camacho, JDv, Fitzgerald, Fonua, Leo, Goneva, Loamanu, McCaffrey, Rizzo, Roberts, Sio, Veainu and Owen. 16 the rest can all play for England under WR conditions, (Brugnara and Tiz unsure due to the italians sometimes having and A team and sometimes not). McCaffrey i...

I think I'd want Croft in the side. Whether that means Williams staying in the second row or McCaffrey moving to 8 with Pearce or Crane on the bench is another debate.

ISTR suggesting either Adam Ashley-Cooper or Matt Toomua late last year. Am I entitled to a referral fee?

I am mrerely an innocent reporter of events! My crystal ball is no better than yours! And thanks for reporting Bill! Unless Tigers can significantly improve the match day experience (a David Clayton phrase) there will be no need for a new Crumbie or a new car park, IMHO. I'll take a new car park. I...
